Many life experiences impact the way we see our selves and the world, while certain experiences may cause us to disconnect from who we are and a life that is meaningful to us. I aim to help clients make sense of their experiences and reconnect with a more meaningful, aligned life. Our work will combine honest, deep conversation with moments of humor and lightness to make difficult conversations approachable. I also provide psychological assessments for children and adults (e.g., ADHD, Autism, and more) to support clients in understanding and normalizing their experiences, while gaining access to helpful accommodations.

I’m a neurodivergent therapist who enjoys working with LGBTQIA+ and neurodivergent individuals, especially those navigating ADHD and Autism. I also work with monogamous and non-monogamous couples, as well as people in polyamorous relationships. I know how exhausting it can be to mask, explain yourself, or fit into spaces not designed with you in mind. In therapy, I want you to feel genuinely welcomed. I support clients in building healthier relationships, exploring identity, managing daily stress, and showing up authentically. My goal is to meet you wherever you are and help you build a life that feels right for you.

My clients often want to gain deep insights into themselves and use these insights to see shifts such as greater self-compassion, less anxiety, and more fulfillment and authenticity. Whether processing trauma or difficult relationships, navigating their sexual identity (queer, non-monogamous, kinky, etc.), or working through everyday struggles, my clients seek an understanding, informed, and non-judgmental place that can help them truly get to know themselves.

These techniques can be applied to a range of mental health issues such as trauma/PTSD, stress and anxiety, depression, mood disorders, gender identity issues, substance use, intrusive and suicidal thoughts, relationship/marital issues, anger management and more.
It takes courage to seek help when you are suffering. Taking steps to improve the quality of your life is one of the most valuable gifts you can give yourself. I believe it is the job of a therapist to help people on their journey and that the therapeutic relationship is an essential part of this process. The therapist must create an environment of trust where it feels safe to explore thoughts and feelings in a non-judgmental, supportive manner. In this kind of atmosphere, we can begin the work to identify strengths and diminish self-defeating thinking and behavior so that you can move forward with your life.

9+ years of facilitating trust and fostering change. I’m a queer, cis woman (she/her), neurodivergent and parent. My approach is warm, collaborative, holistic, and nonjudgmental.
