I love working with adults (17+) experiencing stressors associated with life transitions from early adulthood, identity and relationship concerns (including unique challenges of the LGBTQ+ population), to acute and chronic health issues, parenthood, midlife crises, failure to launch, empty nesting, and end-of-life matters. I'm also honored to support fellow immigrant and refugee clients, assisting them with cultural adaptation and related trauma.

I work with adults and adolescents on anxiety, depression, trauma/PTSD, identity, and career transitions. Whether we’re focusing on cultivating a sense of contentment and resilience or healing emotional wounds and letting go of limiting thoughts and patterns, my goal is to help you become your most authentic, healthy self. I’m a great fit for clients who want to better understand their emotions, grow in areas where they feel stuck, or reexamine how they engage in relationships.
Do you feel like events in your past are keeping you stuck? Do you feel like even though you can identify unhealthy patterns you still end up in the same cycle? It can be overwhelming to try and understand ourselves when we are experiencing distress in our lives and relationships, so having a dedicated space to explore ourselves and feel grounded can help provide the relief and clarity you need to connected, purposeful, and fulfilled with you life again.
Are you feeling stuck in the same cycle happening repeatedly in your relationships? Sometimes it can feel like no matter how hard we try we end up in the same place! My clients often face challenges like communication breakdowns, trust issues, and emotional disconnection. My clients value a structured yet empathetic approach, where they can explore their emotions, understand and communicate their needs and boundaries, and develop practical strategies for lasting change.
I’ve always been moved by humans’ ability to heal and grow through challenging times. I’m excited to engage with clients that are ready to be vulnerable, and dive into therapy to learn, grow, heal, and change. I look forward to helping clients that have felt paralyzed by fear and anxiety to feel free and more fully experience life. Clients that apply what we talked about between sessions and put in effort to practice recommended exercises/interventions often see significant change quickly.
Do you want to better understand why you are the way you are? Do you feel like obstacles from your past are interfering with you living the life you want and having the relationships you desire? Feeling unsure of how to move on from your past and seeing relationship patterns continue to repeat can be incredibly frustrating and lonely. Together we will work on breaking the cycle you are stuck in and empower you to create a future unburdened by your past.

Do you feel like you lose your sense of self in relationships? Do you want to feel more sure of yourself and confident in who you are and your choices? When you do not feel grounded in yourself you can feel lost in your relationships. This can lead to feeling helpless, insecure, or like you are spiraling. Together we will help you towards feeling assured in yourself and your decisions. You deserve to have relationships where you feel confident, empowered, and secure.
Are you experiencing symptoms of anxiety or depression from living in this difficult world? Perhaps you've experienced your own personal trauma, or are seeking to understand and find joy in identities that the majority population "others" or discriminates against. I enjoy working with people across the lifespan, especially those in the queer community who are seeking relief and are ready to explore ways to show up with more embodied joy and liberation.
I'm passionate about challenging circumstances that make positive self-worth and self-realization difficult, difficulty that often arises in trying to find supports that work to recognize and understand you. What I've learned from those who helped me is the importance of creating spaces where the important parts of ourselves feel safer, safe enough to show up. My hope is create these spaces together, with particular attention to trans, nonbinary, and (neuro)queer clients.

Are your relationships suffering? Are you struggling to date, preserve your relationship, or find sexual satisfaction in your relationships? Are you trying to get pregnant, suffering from a loss, or a new parent feeling disconnected from your baby? Relationship issues are often at the core of our suffering and can leave us feeling alone, rejected, and misunderstood. You deserve the chance to feel seen, to heal, and to grow through and toward connection.
Do you struggle with feeling worthy of love? Is it difficult for you to create connected relationships and feel comfortable in your own skin? Feeling marginalized, different, or like you just don’t fit in can feel incredibly painful and lonely. Together we will work towards finding and growing confidence in your identity and who you are! Through this process you will learn to love yourself and build a community around you who deeply cares about you.
Everyone needs a little help and guidance at times, and therapy can be quite empowering. We all struggle from time to time with aspects that simply overwhelm us and leave us less effective in our lives. It is never too late to start a journey that will reward you with an enjoyable life. Begin the New Journey today! Many let the days pass them by until too much time has passed, leaving them with regret. Embrace the moments you have now to invest in your wholeness, healing, and freedom.
I know what it's like to feel broken, like counseling just doesn't work for you. I felt frustrated with the experience of talk therapy, having some progress but digressing again. I specialize in working with clients who have experienced chronic disconnection in their lives, helping them understand what is actually going on in their brains and bodies when they are defensive, anxious, depressed, emotionally dysregulated, etc. Through understanding and "bottom-up" approaches we can get unstuck.
Are you someone who uses humor to hide your emotions? Are you anxious about expressing yourself to others or showing vulnerability? Is fear or anxiety a guide in your life and affecting your day to day life? Do you project to others that you "have it all together" but not actually feel that way on the inside? Do you and your partner feel disconnected and wanting to feel more connected? Do you want to heal from trauma or an eating disorder? I work with you to gain skills and insights for change.
