Learn to enjoy sexual intimacy and your kinks. Create meaningful relationships and set healthy boundaries with those around you. Do not settle for solitude or succumb to despair or depression.

You appear high-functioning, but your mind won’t slow down. OCD, anxiety, intrusive thoughts, rumination, or constant overthinking keep you stuck and exhausted. You may manage work, family, and responsibilities well—while internally feeling anxious, on edge, or trapped in mental loops. If you’re tired of coping and want lasting relief, you’re in the right place. I specialize in OCD and anxiety therapy for teens, adults, and couples, treating intrusive thoughts, scrupulosity, perfectionism, reassurance-seeking, mental checking, and overanalysis. I also help clients struggling with anxious relationship patterns and attachment wounds.

I work with high-functioning women, LGBTQ+ individuals, and couples struggling with anxiety, codependency, trauma bonds, attachment trauma, self-abandonment, and exhausting relationship patterns.
As a lesbian therapist, I also provide LGBTQ+ affirming therapy focused on shame-reduction, nervous system healing, boundaries, self-trust, and lasting change. I offer online EMDR therapy, online IFS (Internal Family Systems) therapy, somatic therapy, and ketamine-assisted therapy and integration.

You may be naturally reflective and articulate—and yet something feels distant, muted, or just out of reach. I work with thoughtful, introspective adults navigating dissociation, identity concerns and experiences that resist easy explanation: depersonalization/derealization (DP/DR), spiritual or near-death experiences, and other encounters that changed everything but left few roadmaps. My style is depth-oriented (yet practical & highly intentional), collaborative, and a bit unconventional—I bring in science, metaphor & the occasional film reference to make psychological experiences feel more real and less isolating.

You’re competent, driven, high-achieving, and exhausted. Perhaps you’re a physician, attorney, or professional who holds it together for everyone else while battling perfectionism, anxiety, or ADHD, or working through grief, infertility, or relationship strain. You may feel stuck between relentless self-criticism and the pressure to continually raise the bar. Therapy can be a space to give yourself permission to exhale, think deeply, and find a steadiness without sacrificing ambition, meaning, or the relationships that matter most.

What if therapy could help you be less reactive, feel more empowered, and experience more hopeful interactions in your relationship? What if you could stay centered and speak for what you want and need, regardless of another person’s reaction? As a family therapist specializing in Internal Family Systems, or IFS, I seek to help individuals, couples, and families to explore, hear, and heal all the important, and often unrecognized, parts of themselves which influence every reaction and every choice. This inward focus removes the dependency on another person to achieve progress, opening up new possibilities for growth and change.

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.
