Are you looking for a therapist who is willing to let you take the wheel during your journey to mental health? Maybe you have anxieties in general, about a specific situation, or even related to past experienced traumas? I am here to both listen to and hear your story.
Are you constantly feeling on edge? Maybe you’re juggling many responsibilities and it feels like there's never a moment to breathe.

Together, we’ll explore simple, effective tools to help you manage stress, regain your sense of calm, and take back control of your day-to-day life. You deserve peace!
Are you heading into the New Year wanting to change old habits? Are you heading into a major life change whether it be a new job, new baby or a big move?

EMDR and talk therapy can be a stepping stone to a better future, kicking old behavioral patterns and starting anew! I am excited to walk alongside you!
As your therapist, I build on our overlapping or shared experiences as much as I welcome people in all walks of life. I facilitate a space for LGBTQ+, gender-expansive, neurodivergent, and consensually non-monogamous folks exploring their identities, emotion management, difficulties in interpersonal dynamics, and being an agent of change. I am excited to work with people of all genders, gender expressions, and sexual orientations.

My ideal client is someone ready to face life’s challenges with courage and commitment. I specialize in working with individuals navigating trauma, PTSD, sexual abuse, substance use, domestic violence, and narcissistic abuse. I also support clients managing anxiety, stress, life transitions, and adjustment issues. Through compassion, empathy, and a holistic lens, I help clients heal, grow, and build lives they love. If you're ready to take the next step, I’m here to support you.
As a relational therapist, my aim is to support clients in striving for safety, security, and authenticity—whether individually, as a family, or in romantic relationships. I specialize in working with dyads, helping to dissolve distance or conflict while building a foundation of emotional closeness. Growing up as a “third culture kid,” I also have a particular interest in supporting first- or second-generation immigrants as they explore cultural attunement with themselves or their communities.
Are you feeling overwhelmed, anxious, or misunderstood? If so, I would love to offer you a comfortable (virtual) space in which to get support. I enjoy working with people who are exploring neurodivergence (particularly autism and ADHD), gender identity, sexual orientation, or body image. I also connect well with people who are experiencing major life changes, chronic health conditions, or who are struggling with relationships and boundaries.
As I mentioned in my intro, I like to work in a partnership with my client. You are the expert of you and I am on your journey with you to get to your chosen direction. I have experience working with people of many different backgrounds (socioeconomic, race, gender). I very much look forward to meeting you, learning from you (remember, you are the expert of you), and our working together to help you go where you want to go.

I support adult individuals and couples through challenges with men’s mental health, relationships and attachment, mixed-race identity, life transitions, anxiety, and depression. From the start, we will work at your pace to identify the core issues getting in your way and the relationships you want to have.
When we feel most overwhelmed and stressed, we often find it difficult to prioritize what we value most. Our interests, our commitments, and the relationships most important to us often suffer when we are suffering and struggling to show up. Therapy can offer us a space to reconnect with ourselves, and find a sense of peace and calm, allowing us to move closer to the people and areas of our lives we want. Therapy can help us enjoy life again the way we once used to.
Becoming a parent can be a landmine. What is often billed as simple, linear, and seamless can be filled with complicated emotions, experiences, and a sense of overwhelm. I work with people on all points of the birthing path- whether you are just thinking about having a child, trying to conceive, are pregnant or postpartum . This includes people struggling with infertility, pregnancy and infant loss, perinatal mood and anxiety disorders, and birth trauma, as well as partners and birth workers.
Our clients present with a variety of concerns including depression, anxiety, disordered eating, body image concerns, OCD, relationship challenges, navigating life transitions, immigration/first generation experiences, identity exploration, and issues related to neurodivergence. We specialize in working with individuals who are seeking a greater sense of alignment with themselves and those who are looking for support as they find their own way.
Many of my clients struggle to be vulnerable in relationships, due to the belief that they will experience rejection if they allow others to see their true selves. My promise is to see, hear, and understand each part of you, especially the parts that you are afraid to show others. In particular, I am passionate about working with LGBTQIA+ clients, especially gay men struggling to overcome internalized homophobia. I also work well with individuals wanting to process early childhood experiences.

I help people learn to forgive themselves for not being 'perfect' through eclectic evidence based modalities while also incorporating psychoeducation and lived experience – learning to give yourself the grace you deserve as well as increasing the ease with which you healthily cope with the stressors of life; To learn to create space for yourself and gain a sense of self acceptance and self actualization. I engage with you conversationally to create movement and change towards a healthy outcome .
Are you always a little bit afraid that an anxiety attack is waiting around the corner? Have you been hit with surprise anxiety more times than you can count? I know exactly what you're feeling: the pounding chest, the shortness of breath, the feeling that the walls are closing in and you need out NOW. Attacks can be terrifying, and I don't want you to have to suffer them anymore. Holistic practices can reduce anxiety tremendously, and I look forward to teaching you tools to take your life back.
