I am a queer, non-binary, mixed-race, neurodivergent therapist who specializes in working with clients around issues relating to sexuality, sexual orientation, gender identity, body dysphoria, religious trauma, relationships (monogamous/polyamorous), kink, anxiety, depression, existential issues & life transitions. If you've been reluctant to approach a therapist for support fearing that you will be judged or shamed, I can empathize - and I can probably help.

I am committed to building a relationship that supports your unique needs, develops your strengths and fosters your innate ability to heal. Often, we aren’t afforded the time, opportunity or privilege to learn the most beneficial ways to sift through what comes our way. We tackle things as best we can using strategies learned from previous experiences. In some situations, our default strategies end up taking us further away from what we want. This can prevent us from fulfilling our needs - we may get stuck not knowing how to cope or how to move forward. I primarily use non talk-therapy modules of Structural Dissociation, EMDR, DBR.

Do you feel stuck, anxious, or unfulfilled? Although many of us learn to avoid pain, few of us learn the road to more lasting relief. Therapy is a powerful way to bring clarity to your inner thoughts, feelings and hopes as you actualize a more peaceful and purposeful life. I work with people seeking to move into healthy relationships, anyone seeking to effect change, and people overwhelmed by maladaptive patterns in their lives. Drawing from my training and experience, we'll devise a unique plan to develop strategies toward achieving your goals.

Through my experience working with hundreds of clients I’ve come to believe that everyone is truly doing the best they can with the inner and outer resources they have available in the moment. I work with you to develop a deeper acceptance of yourself by exploring who you are as a whole person, from processing difficult experiences to bolstering your strengths and healthy boundaries. If you're feeling stuck, overwhelmed, anxious, or low and unmotivated, we can work together to help life feel more manageable and meaningful.

I help neurodivergent (autism, ADHD), queer, immigrant, and minority clients build their self-esteem and cultivate meaningful relationships. I also support students and working professionals with career transitions and stress management. Poor boundaries, people-pleasing, and relationship anxiety can come about when you consistently receive the message that your needs are not as important as somebody else's. Although masking your genuine self may have aided you through difficult times, losing touch with who you really are will only bring you farther from what you actually want and need.

Do you feel overwhelmed? Are you constantly worrying about what you have to do next? Are you having difficulties believing in yourself? Do you feel like you are stuck in life? I have found that these are common concerns that clients experience before accessing psychotherapy. I am here to work with you, at your own pace, to increase your awareness and agency. I believe that the psychotherapy journey begins with being heard, seen, understood, and accepted. From here, self-acceptance, self-awareness, and self-growth are inevitable.
