Whether you are navigating grief and loss, shame or low self-worth, difficulty in your relationships, symptoms of anxiety or depression, or are working through the impacts of stress, abuse, grief, or trauma - you don't have to do it alone. I work best with clients who are naturally self-reflective and existential thinkers, looking for new ways to experience their life and relationships.
We all have an inner critical voice that can overwhelm our experiences and sabotage our relationship with ourselves and others. My clients learn to identify and relate differently to this inner voice, creating a shift in how they treat themselves. They are then able to engage in a process of investigating different parts of themselves and lead their lives with more inner freedom, self compassion, and open heartedness.
I work with a wide variety of clients from individuals identifying as LGBTQIA, poly, & kink to cisgender heterosexual individuals. My clients tend to struggle with issues of identity, depression, bipolar disorder, gender dysphoria, anxiety, panic, trauma histories, ADHD, family of origin issues, grief and loss, life transitions, relationship issues, stress management/self care, & interpersonal effectiveness. Clients also tend to seek me out for letters of support for gender confirmation surgery.
Being human is often tough. Sometimes we lose our way and can feel stuck and overwhelmed. Sometimes we would like to change parts of our lives or ourselves but don’t know how. Therapy can be an empowering way to promote healing, growth, and wellness. Often, we initially seek treatment to address a specific concern and then begin to uncover other areas of our lives in which we want to make meaningful change. My goal is for this process to feel supportive, affirming, and appropriately challenging.

I work with relationships (couples, polycules, adult family members) and individuals. I specialize in working with LGBTQIA2S+ people. I am passionate about working with folks whose life experiences challenge mainstream norms and are deemed unconventional. Many of my clients are sensitive people with extrasensory awarenesses and spiritual and/or religious practices. My client's are brave cycle breakers, and I love supporting them as they embrace their truths.
Do you know that something needs to change for your child or family, but you aren’t sure where to start? Are you wondering if a specific diagnosis might apply to your child, and what type of services may help? I provide psychological assessment to answer questions about diagnosis and treatment options. I also offer consultation to parents/caregivers, which may be helpful if your child has already had previous testing and you need help understanding it.
As a young professional you may experience so many pressures coming from many directions. Pressures from a new career, or from your close relationships or maybe even pressures from your own family. But now you're realizing that these pressures are affecting you in a deep way. You notice that your health is also being affected. You are experiencing problems with high anxiety, depressed mood, irritability or even sleep. And you 're also noticing that your passion for life is dwindling.
Historically, women have been valued primarily for being a certain size. Body Acceptance is gaining traction more and more, but many women still obsess about changing how they look. My body image groups provide support for women who can't seem to feel okay with themselves.

I work with individuals looking to navigate life transitions and challenges as their authentic and genuine selves. Individuals looking for a deeper understanding of their relationships: romantic, family, friendship, roommate, and more. Clients who want to cultivate healthy dependence in their closest relationships. Parents ready to learn how their family’s generational parenting patterns inform their relationship with themselves and their kids and develop new, effective parenting methods.

My clients struggle as you do. Despite being smart, determined and kind, life is hard. When they first come in, they experience thoughts and emotions as too intense. They have trouble relaxing and feel like anxiety has taken over their life. Before therapy, they put a lot of pressure on themselves and felt guilt and shame for struggling. ‘Other people seem to have it all together, why can’t they?’ Like my clients, you deserve to find peace and fulfillment in life. I'd love to help you get there.
Are you a high achieving professional but underneath the surface you’re struggling with anxiety and negative voices constantly replaying the message that you’re not enough? Have you experienced traumas in the past that doesn’t seem to fade away with time, and you’re ready to finally experience true freedom from them? Do you feel conflicted in your bicultural identity and wonder where you belong? Do you wish you can find a way to reconcile the two worlds that you in?
I help people who are struggling to develop a strong sense of self worth. I often work with people exploring identity and self esteem Who are experiencing symptoms like high anxiety, depression, difficulty coping with stress, and intrusive negative thoughts. Some therapists focus only on the symptoms which can feel incomplete. I listen deeply to hear what’s going on underneath. I help you process the old stories and beliefs held deep within that are cutting you off from your true self.
Building relationships, changing your experience of yourself and others, providing more flexibility and resilience in the face of challenges in life. Relationship challenges, anxiety ranging from social anxiety to PTSD, depression, trauma, and struggles to find a place in life. As my clients move forward in their work, many of them will choose to do group therapy, because of it's ability to bring out, and make changes in, deep and pervasive ways of relating to oneself and others.
I have a particular passion for working with survivors of childhood abuse, domestic, and sexual violence. I am also well versed in and absolutely love working with the LGBTQIA, BIPOC, and Kink/Poly communities. What I love about working with survivors is fiercely holding hope while delicately encouraging the sparks of change at a time that can be so dark.

Just Imagine… Looking in the mirror and loving the reflection you see. Choosing the foods you truly desire without fear, guilt or shame. Being excited to put on your new bathing suit. Never, ever feeling uncomfortably hungry or overstuffed again. It may be difficult to imagine finding this kind of freedom from food and body image issues, yet with the help of a trained professional you can learn to transform your thoughts and behaviors to make peace with food and love your body.
You are not a walking problem, and there is more to life than coping. I imagine that (rightfully so) you're in this search because you're looking for a way out of your suffering. Great! I'd like to suggest that you can find even more: a greater connection to yourself, and a life truly worth living. I tend to work with people who haven't gotten what they need from therapy by changing their mindset. When trauma gets stuck in the body, the only way "out" is through a deeper connection with self.
