With over seven years of experience supporting individuals from diverse backgrounds, I’ve worked with people navigating serious mental illness, trauma, and life transitions.

My clients and I walk the road together. I highly respect our therapeutic relationship and confidentiality between us, while supporting clients in their goals, sense of empowerment, and personal achievement. Fun fact. Some people find achievement as a way of healing from boredom, depression, anxiety, eating conditions, or even generational trauma (and more). I ask people to ask me why I lean into achievement throughout life, especially if it is healing.

The broken systems of the modern world have produced an abundance of people who exist on the fringes of society, struggling to carve out a place to belong. I believe that we can collectively build a better world so long as we empower those very people to fix the systems that have ostracized them in the first place, and I believe that, as a therapist, I am in a position to do exactly that.

Maybe you've spent so much of your life masking that you're no longer sure who you are underneath it all. You've learned to people-please, overthink every interaction, or hide parts of yourself just to feel safe. If you're LGBTQIA+, neurodivergent, or healing from complex PTSD, you may feel exhausted from living in survival mode. Together, we'll help you understand the patterns that once protected you, reconnect with your authentic self, and build a life that feels more grounded, connected, and fully yours.

I work with queer and/or non-monogamous people struggling with disconnection and dissatisfaction in their relationships; typically accompanied by conflict avoidance, people pleasing, and painful self-sacrificing. My clients often struggle with identifying their needs, holding boundaries, and standing up for themselves in love, even at the expense of their own emotional safety.
When people find my office they are often feeling alone, exhausted by constant internal tug-of-war, and frustrated at the repetitive nature of their inner and outer conflicts. Accompanying anxiety and depression are often long-term struggles as well.

Does it matter what gender my therapist is?
The gender of your therapist can matter, depending on your individual comfort preferences and therapeutic goals. While therapy outcomes are often driven by the therapist’s methodology and the strength of the therapeutic relationship, many people feel more at ease working with a therapist who shares or understands their gender identity, which can enhance trust and improve therapy outcomes. For clients who are non-binary or gender-diverse, working with a therapist of a similar identity may reduce the need to explain or justify their experiences and can increase the sense of being seen and understood. This dynamic may be especially important when addressing topics related to gender, sexuality, trauma, or relationships. Ultimately, what matters most is finding a therapist who is respectful and knowledgeable of your identity—regardless of their own gender.
What are the advantages of seeing a non-binary therapist?
Working with a non-binary therapist can offer unique benefits for individuals seeking support around gender identity. Therapists who personally identify as non-binary may bring both professional training and personal insight to their work, creating a therapeutic space that some clients may find more affirming and welcoming. These therapists often have specialized knowledge in areas such as gender-affirming care, gender dysphoria, and navigating family or social acceptance. They may also be particularly skilled in helping clients find additional resources, such as affirming healthcare providers or community-based supports that align with and affirm their identity.
How can I find a non-binary therapist?
The Psychology Today online directory is a helpful tool for identifying therapists who identify as non-binary. You can use filters to search by identity markers as well as by clinical specialty, therapeutic approach, insurance accepted, session costs, and languages spoken to help ensure a good fit. During an initial consultation or early sessions, consider asking about the therapist’s training in gender-affirming care, their experience with LGBTQ+ clients, and their therapeutic approach to identity-related topics. An effective therapist will be open and affirming in their responses. You can also look for credentials or continuing education in areas such as LGBTQ+ mental health, trauma-informed care, and intersectionality.
