Life can be chaotic and make us feel unsure about ourselves and lonely and disconnected in our valued relationships. I specialize in working with people who need space to process life's challenges and who want to improve connection in their most valued relationships.
My clients are often either grieving, caring for a parent or spouse, or experiencing their own chronic or terminal illness. Many of my clients are adult children caring for an aging parent. Oftentimes I help families have hard conversations about end-of-life decisions and potential moves into residential long-term care. It's true, there is always something more pleasant to talk about. And these conversations need to happen, too.
I help people align their lives with their hearts when oppressive forces tell them to stay put. Trust is central to our work, since your relationship with me will be one of the most critical factors in your healing. I will meet you with an open heart, and a lot of realness.Together, we can shift your relationships with the problems in your life and reclaim your connection to yourself and what is most precious to you.

I enjoy working with clients who want to find new ways to navigate life’s challenges as well as their mental health symptoms. They may be struggling with symptoms of depression and/or anxiety, trauma processing and triggers, interpersonal relationships, or addiction behaviors such as excessive spending, eating, or holding on to items that are affecting their well-being. Clients may want to identify patterns that are holding them back from the life they want.

My ideal clients are neuroatypical, polyamorous queers figuring this life thing out, needing support & want to make art about it. They desire validation of their dreams & passions & long for encouragement in pursuing them. I strive to meet clients where they're at, support their in-the-moment needs & "show up" with & for them; physically & emotionally. My ideal clients are actively engaged in Art Therapy with me in my studio & have open minds about what processing & healing can look like!
I practice trauma-focused therapy for trans youth & young adults ages 13-30 & letters for all ages. My specialty is supporting those processing their gender & sexuality, & trauma survivors' experience with depression, bipolar moods, anxiety, self-harm, suicidality, disability/chronic pain, DID, dissociation, and disordered eating. I am body, sex, & kink positive, poly-inclusive, & consider impacts of intersectional oppression. I provide surgery & HRT letters (any age) in one session.
You are in the family-building phase of your life, and perhaps you are feeling more overwhelmed, anxious or depressed than you expected. We are often unprepared for the difficulties we might face, or how hard the adjustment to motherhood can be. If you are struggling with your emotions, feeling alone, or are yearning to feel more confident in your role as a mom, you deserve support and guidance.
My clients are high achieving, motivated, experience life deeply (even if they don't always show the world) and come to me when they are feeling stuck in their relationships. My clients often have trauma in their background, and come to me when they decide it is time to do work around whatever that is. I enjoy working with individuals and couples on increasing their ability to connect with the people who are most important in their lives, as well as increasing their understanding of themselves.
My clients include a diverse array of individuals. From my viewpoint, diversity goes beyond racial, cultural and religious diversity. Diversity also includes differences in sexual orientation; gender identity; socioeconomic status; physical, psychological and educational ability; differences in resident status and a wide range of ages. In my view, diversity also includes diversity of thought. For how can we truly grow if we don't expand the pool of those we know and interact with?

Deciding to seek therapy can stir up all kinds of emotions. Maybe it’s been a long time coming, perhaps the thing you used to do to get by isn’t working anymore, or maybe life recently threw you a difficult curve ball. Either way, it can feel isolating trying to figure it out alone. Friends and family can be helpful, though sometimes you just need a safe space of your own to regroup and a safe person to walk with you while you do the hard work.

Have you been struggling with sexual behaviors, attractions, or thoughts that you've been acting on in secret and want to stop with the hurt and shame? Revive your sex life within your relationship(s), as it no longer feels you and your partner(s) are on the same page? The secrecy, shame, guilt, disconnect -- it feels exhausting -- and you do not have to continue to experience this hurt. I look forward to helping you rediscover yourself/relationship(s) in a new way without all the baggage.
My clients are motivated for positive change and put the work in to reap the fruits of their labor. My clients want to change their lives for the better - I am here to help guide them along their path. Reaching out to a therapist can be daunting, my hope is to ease that process through a non-judgmental free 20-minute consultation over the phone or zoom. These are free and are in no way binding! I love meeting new people and being invited into their journeys. I look forward to hearing from you

As a Marriage and Family Therapist, I work best with relationships. I'm most passionate about working with intimate partnerships, no matter their status or structure. I have a special interest in working with non-normative relationships (non-monogamy, polyamory, kink/BDSM). On an individual level, I love working with sex (erotic energy, desire, etc.), sexual orientation, and gender (identity and expression). Pretty much anything that intersects with sexuality is my jam, normative or otherwise.
You aren’t feeling yourself…maybe you haven’t in a long time. Responsibilities of daily life can be stressful, relationships challenging, life transitions happen when we least expect; and this is all HARD. Perhaps you have tried podcasts, self-help books, or even Tic Tok looking for advice. Lifes sh*t isn’t easy. There are things you can do in this very moment to begin healing. Reach out and connect with me…take this first step!
Are you looking for guidance while working through anxiety, grief and loss, trauma, and stress reduction? I strive to create a non-judgmental, culturally sensitive environment for healing.
