I am a clinical psychologist and psychology supervisor. In my 10 years of practice, I have developed skills and experience in offering trauma therapies (particularly to adults with childhood trauma), acceptance-focused therapies, and working with persons from queer communities. I offer a non-judgmental and accepting therapeutic space, where you can feel safe to explore the things that have been hard to figure out on your own. If you’re here, you’ve started looking for help, which is a good first step. Feel free to contact me for a chat, if you think we might work well together.

This isn't the life you envisioned. You aren't the person you hoped to become. Your choices and decisions seem to prevent any relief from the constant, nagging anxiety that disrupts your sleep and impacts your health. The lingering effects of a difficult upbringing may still be causing harm to your present relationships and your sense of self. Whatever the root cause of your suffering, it is always much harder to overcome alone. I'm here to support you in that struggle as we work together to understand and address your unhappiness in a safe, constructive space.
