I provide LGBTQ+ affirming therapy for children, teens, adults, and families, including those who identify as transgender, nonbinary, and gender-diverse. I support clients navigating identity exploration, coming out, relationships, family acceptance, discrimination, anxiety, and life transitions, as well as children and adolescents facing school, peer, or family challenges related to their identities. I also offer affirming perimenopause support for LGBTQ+ adults, recognizing the unique ways hormonal changes can intersect with identity, relationships, mental health, and overall well-being.
I provide LGBTQ+ affirming therapy for children, teens, adults, and families, with specialties in anxiety, trauma, attachment, expressive arts, play therapy, life transitions, and perimenopause support. Together, we'll build insight, strengthen resilience, and create meaningful, lasting change in a warm, collaborative space.
In our work, I provide a space to explore and express yourself. Through talk therapy and/or creative arts, I guide you in uncovering emotions and working through challenges. Therapy is not one-size-fits-all, so I tailor my approach to your unique needs, supporting you every step. If you’re ready for deeper healing, I'd be honored to work with you.
