I am dedicated to helping clients heal from trauma, grow in self-awareness, and find and establish their identity and value. I have walked through infidelity in my marriage and I understand the devastation betrayal has on a partner, a relationship, and a family. I am also passionate to support clients as they explore religious trauma and deconstruction. I am acutely aware of the complex process of healing in these areas and believe being supported well assists in healing and recovery. Asking for help is often difficult, however my client-centered approach creates a safe, non-judgmental space for you to process and begin healing.

The weird ones, the queer ones, the wicked smart ones, etc.
One day you’re buying them a cute backpack with dinosaurs on it, and the next, you’re living with a tiny, volatile human who treats a slightly-too-long pause in your sentence like a personal declaration of war. Welcome to the middle school years—where the social drama is high-octane, the "Comparison Trap" is a literal pit of despair, and your child’s mood changes faster than a TikTok trend.
It’s intense. It’s loud. And for you, the parent, it’s exhausting.

As a nonbinary neurospicy individual myself, I am deeply committed to providing an affirming, safe environment for neurodivergent, LGBTQIA+, and BIPOC identities, and my counseling space is interlaced with warmth, compassion, and authenticity, with the intention that all who work with them feel seen, heard, and supported throughout the entirety of their therapeutic journey.
I focus on examining an individual’s “dominant narrative,” which is the story of their life that has been thrust upon them by external forces (family, friends, society, etc.). Through this lens, I work with clients to search for “sparkling moments” that counteract this less-than-desirable Narrative, allowing them to regain power in their life.

As a Black, queer woman, I bring an intersectional perspective to therapy, honoring how identity, culture, and life experiences shape connection and helping clients navigate challenges with understanding and care.
I work with individuals, couples, and families who want to strengthen their relationships and create more meaningful connections. Many come to therapy feeling the effects of conflict, betrayal, life transitions, or emotional distance and aren't sure how to reconnect. Together, we'll explore the patterns shaping your relationships, strengthen communication, rebuild trust, deepen emotional intimacy, and cultivate new ways of relating that foster greater understanding, lasting growth, and healthier, more fulfilling relationships.

LGBTQ+ Therapists
Do LGBTQ-affirmative therapists receive special training?
Yes. Many therapists who practice LGBTQ-affirmative therapy have completed specialized training, either during their degree program or as continuing education, to learn the core principles of affirmative therapy and how to best support their LGBTQ clients; some have received certifications in LGBTQ-affirmative therapy. Prospective clients should inquire as to a clinician’s background and training to ensure a good fit.
Why might I want to see an LGBTQ-affirming or LGBTQ-friendly therapist?
Queer and gender-non-conforming individuals frequently experience bias and marginalization in day-to-day life. Working with a therapist who understands these unique challenges, as well as accepts and affirms their identity, can help LGBTQ clients feel safe and supported during therapy—allowing them to better navigate their relationships, mental health, and anything else that they wish to explore during therapy. It is important to note that many therapists can be effective in their work with LGBTQ+ individuals, even in the absence of specific training or background knowledge. The most important component in therapy is the alliance between therapist and client, and this alliance can exist between individuals with very different backgrounds.
How can I find an LGBTQ-friendly therapist?
You may wish to inquire about a therapist’s expertise with your specific challenges or concerns—depression, for example, or relationship strife—as well as their past experiences treating LGBTQ+ clients. Prospective clients may also ask whether a therapist has obtained additional training and/or certification in LGBTQ-affirmative techniques.
How can I inquire about a therapist’s experience with LGBTQ issues?
Prospective clients should feel empowered to directly ask therapists whether they have received training or been certified in LGBTQ-affirming therapy; competent therapists will be happy to explain their educational background and preferred approach(es) to help a client find the best match for them. Clients may also wish to ask how a therapist has treated clients with their particular challenges in the past and what they expect treatment to look like.
Are all the therapists listed in the LGBTQ directory themselves members of the LGBTQ community?
While therapists may choose to disclose their sexual orientation or gender identity in their profiles, the LGBTQ directory features not only those who have shared this information but also those who assert specialized training or experience in providing support to queer individuals, couples or families.
