While I support clients of all identities and ages, I specialize in working with clients who identify as part of the LGBTQIA+ community, might be experiencing life & faith transitions, or have been impacted by health conditions or disabilities both personally, professionally, or familial. I also have over 10+ years of extensive experience working with children and adolescents. I have supported young adults through feelings of anxiety, depression, self-harm, and identity exploration. I hope to offer my clients a corner of the world that provides a space of connection, curiosity, and healing.

My approach is eclectic, taking on elements from psychodynamic, humanistic, and person-centered therapies. I have experience working with anxiety, depression, ADHD, LGBTQIA+ issues, and faith transitions.

Do you struggle with ongoing patterns of behaviors and/or thoughts that you know aren’t helpful, but you can’t seem to change them? Perhaps you’ve even been to therapy before, but the patterns continue. You didn’t “failed” at growth or healing, you just need a different approach to addressing core issues. I take a modern therapeutic approach based in neuroscience, offering alternatives to old, outdated, traditional talk therapy in order to create long-lasting changes. I work with individuals who are feeling stuck in life, have anxiety, depression, shame, trauma, complex trauma, relationship problems, and faith crisis.

My clients have described me as kind, authentic, and warm. I prioritize creating an emotionally safe environment to investigate internal conflict and facilitate self love and acceptance. I help clients to understand their emotions on a deeper level giving them the ability to move forward in life with new clarity and confidence. In a world that prioritizes independence and self determination, reaching out for help can often feel like fighting basic instincts. If you are struggling with feeling alone, unsupported or disconnected from yourself and others, I am so glad you are here.
