Clients whom I've worked well with are often experiencing interpersonal struggles, depression, anxiety, physical symptoms, and unhelpful behaviors that stem from earlier trauma. Some clients may be new to therapy and others may have done a lot of therapy and are looking for a different approach. I've also worked with many clients who are struggling with a current issue such as stress, illness, loss, relationship issues, and life transitions. I've witnessed so much courage and resilience.
Do you notice repetitive patterns of thoughts, feelings, or actions in your life that cause distress? Does your "best you" feel fleetingly accessible, if at all? My only request of clients who work with me is that they continually invest in understanding themselves better and extending curiosity to their innermost parts. Together, we'll collaborate with curiosity and compassion to investigate and appreciate the challenges, insights, and triumphs of your ongoing story.
Whether you're grappling with depression, anxiety, or low self-esteem, facing a significant life transition, experiencing challenges in your relationships, dealing with complex family dynamics, or wanting to work through the impact of trauma, I'm here to help. I'm passionate about supporting those who are struggling to find or assert their voice, uncertain about how to move forward, or fearful about how finding their voice and redefining themselves might impact their relationships with others.
Whether you are seeking insights into the beauty of neurodiversity, navigating the complexities of disorders across various life stages, or bravely coping with the aftermath of a brain injury or stroke, know that you are not alone—I am here to walk beside you. With a deep understanding of how the brain functions and its impact on daily functioning, my expertise encompasses evaluations with a wide range of disorders.

I have experience working with anxiety, depression, dissociation, major life and relationship changes, eating concerns and disorders, and extreme states. As a queer, non-binary clinician, I am especially excited to work with people navigating issues related to gender identity, sexuality, and relationships of all kinds as well as with men.
I provide counseling to adults and adolescents, helping them navigate issues like anxiety, depression, self-esteem, body image, and sexuality or gender identity development. With a deep passion for and experience working with diverse communities—including the queer community, neurodivergent individuals, and those in non-monogamous/kink communities—I strive to create an inclusive space where all feel welcomed and understood.
For my clients, some aspect of who they are does not align with the expectations of them, bringing up anxiety, depression, and other stressors. Clients bring in issues related to masculinity, communication, relationships, identity, self-esteem, and polyamory. They may also feel limited or overwhelmed by larger issues outside of their control, such as the environment, capitalism, or other oppressive structures. They want to live more confidently but don't know how to do it on their own.
I believe in authenticity and the healing power of laughter; I bring these values into the therapy space and encourage you to bring yours. I primarily work with adolescents and young adults, helping them work through early childhood trauma, grief, and loss. I'm also passionate about promoting healthy masculinity and incorporate this lens into my work. I aim to create a warm, non-judgmental environment where you feel comfortable sharing your challenges.

Are you an immigrant or a first-generation American navigating the intricate intersection of culture, religion, and identity? I am a first generation Muslim American. Albanian is my first language, and I am happy to work with clients in Albanian. English is my second language. I have tackled my own issues around identity with religion and the western world, and continue to do so as I navigate my own intersectionality.
As the expert of your own experience, you deserve to be listened to and understood. I intend to hold space for all aspects of your unique identities. Everyone faces challenges and obstacles in the world. For many of us, these barriers are the result of systemic oppression. In therapy, we can explore how your thoughts, feelings, and motivations are influenced by these external forces, and how you can navigate them authentically, while centering your inherent capacity and resilience.
I specialize in working with adolescents and adults, and I'm passionate about building therapeutic relationships that empower my clients to explore, grow, and heal. If you're ready to embark on this journey of self-discovery and transformation, I'm here to walk alongside you every step of the way. My work is inclusive of all people - when working with me, you can expect a safe space free of any judgement based on your profession, age, race, gender, sexuality, or any other identities you hold.

I am comfortable working with clients who are seeking help for stress, anxiety, depression, loss, or trauma.
