My background spans residential treatment, CPS and foster care, and psychological assessment with experience in autism.
You may feel weighed down by anxiety, depression, or low self-esteem, stuck in patterns that hurt you and your relationships. Maybe you’re a teen facing identity and school stress, a parent navigating conflict at home, or someone carrying trauma from the past, foster care, or difficult relationships. You want steadier moods, stronger boundaries, and healthier connection. My ideal client wants real tools and a calm, honest guide who can hold hard stories, reduce chaos, and help rebuild confidence and safety, even if you’re not sure where to start. Tired of panic spikes or numbing? Ready to sleep better, focus, and feel like yourself.

Hello and Welcome! It has been a dream of mine to become a therapist since I was about 11 years old. Sexual health discussions have never made me uncomfortable in any way, and I like to provide a safe space for clients to discuss these issues. Many people experience shame about their relationship preferences, kinks, and sexual orientation. I like to help individuals and couples who may be struggling in this area. I also enjoy working with clients who are gender diverse, are thinking about or currently transitioning, and so forth.
