I am passionate about providing a safe and welcoming space for people to receive support and heal. I care deeply about meeting clients where they are and tailoring sessions to their specific needs. In my work with clients, I strive to create a space in which we can become curious about patterns that are no longer working, and how they might have developed in the first place. I help people develop more effective ways of coping, and I support them in changing the ways they relate to themselves and others.

Are you exploring your LGBTQIA+ identity and feeling unsupported or misunderstood? Maybe you’re tired of masking your neurodivergence, struggling with intimacy, or navigating anxiety, sexual dysfunction, or substance use. Past family dynamics or childhood trauma may still feel heavy, and attachment wounds might shape your relationships and self-worth. You’re craving clarity, connection, and relief, and a space where you can stop performing, feel truly seen, and start building a grounded, fulfilling life that feels more like your own. Let’s work together to create a path to a more fulfilling, authentic life.

One of the things life has taught me is to not believe everything you think because our mind can really play tricks on us. There is hope even when you think there is none. There are solutions even when you cannot see them, because you have more power than you know.

I am committed to working with children, adolescents, individuals and families who are in the midst of seeking understanding and guidance on the path towards healing. Everyone has a story to tell, and everyone deserves to be heard. When traumatic experiences occur, they can alter our view of ourselves and the world. Through therapy, we can work together to rewrite these narratives and beliefs. Who you are is greater than what you've done or had happen to you. I have worked intensely with trauma across the lifespan, adolescent and adult addiction and recovery, and a variety of mood and anxiety disorders.
