My areas of interest include: stress management, life adjustments, relationships, anxiety, depression, PTSD, building self-esteem/body image, addressing suicidal thoughts/urges, using mindfulness based approaches, working with clients who are adopted, and exposure-based interventions.
Coming to therapy is a big decision: sometimes we know right away what we want to focus on; other times, it takes a while to find what it is we want to discover about ourselves. I value taking the time to build a relationship with my clients that allows them to feel like they are the leaders of their own treatment. As a clinician, my goals are your goals. You set the stage in our sessions, and I am the one who helps guide you to where you need to be. I believe in building a therapeutic relationship that allows for openness, understanding, trust, and empathy; and the best and most effective clinical work happens when you feel safe.

I work primarily with adults who present a variety of issues including anxiety, depression, grief/bereavement, stress management, college adjustment, and life transitions.
People decide to start therapy for a variety of reasons - depression and anxiety, ending of a relationship, a major life transition or self discovery, just to name a few. Whatever your personal reasons are to begin therapy, I believe that the process of therapy along with the therapeutic relationship serve as the vehicle to help you reach your goals. Based on your unique needs, we create a therapy treatment plan together. By creating a safe and non-judgmental space, I then work with you in a collaborative manner to help you identify your feelings, thoughts, and behaviors and discover how these three influence each other.

It’s natural to experience unhelpful patterns or symptoms when we've experienced trauma and adverse childhood experiences. We feel off balance, chronically stressed, anxious, or depressed. I prefer to view these symptoms as inner parts who need our attention and care. When these inner parts are healed, they feel less compelled to ruminate, obsess, or depress. That means there is more space for the qualities you want to have in your life, such as creativity, joy, confidence, clarity, peace, and presence.

Being a human comes with all sorts of challenging and rewarding experiences. Sometimes, those experiences are overwhelming, confusing, and emotionally exhausting. I believe that people are resilient and have the ability for change. My approach to therapy is collaborative, with a focus on self-exploration, increasing insight, and empowering a person to be the best version of themselves.

Are you having trouble feeling seen or heard? Are you struggling to connect and feel stuck? It would be an honor to be a part of your healing journey to explore the intersectionality of various identities (gender, race, sexuality, etc.) and uncover how that may play a role in your personhood. I am a Licensed Master of Social Work with a passion to encourage and empower the potential that others see in themselves. I believe that everyone is inherently valuable and should be treated with dignity and respect.

It is human nature to try and create understanding of the situations we experience, for once we understand what the experience is, what we feel and why we feel it, we can begin to take back our control. I believe that it is from this space that we can then begin to heal; to create necessary change and grow. As a therapist, it is my goal to help move you through the power of “why?” so that you may gain understanding, take back your control, and heal.

Healing happens relationally–within our communities, our families, and within ourselves. Therapy works best if we can build a safe and trusting relationship, so you should know a little bit about who I am! I am a white, queer and trans femme musician turned therapist. I am areligious, but I find many experiences to be deeply spiritual, including cooking, being in community with others, singing together, and walking in nature. Folks who do well with me don't fit the status quo, are navigating transitions, are noticing patterns in their relationships they want to examine and change, and are in search of healing and transformation.

Life is a complex journey that challenges us as we move through it. All the experiences we encounter affect the way we interact and interpret our internal and external worlds. When these worlds become overwhelming, associated with negative beliefs, and/or affect our daily functioning it may be time to find support. I believe that we all have the ability to overcome barriers and obstacles that come our way throughout this journey. Each of us can grow and change through the very strengths we have within ourselves. Sometimes these strengths can be hard to access when we are going through a challenging time.

How do we feel, think and be present? It’s easier said than done. Yet, feeling, thinking, and simply being- though often uncomfortable, are fundamentally what make us human! During our sessions, we will explore what it means to feel, think, and be. I welcome you as you are, regardless of where you are in your journey. If you’re coming in with learned habits and thinking patterns that no longer serve you, we can work together to discover the possibilities of unlearning and relearning. By collaborating, we can understand what it means to develop insight into life’s difficult thoughts, feelings, relationships, and experiences.

Figuring it out often feels like waiting for the world to pause so we can catch-up and the pieces finally fall together. As you well know, those pauses often are not long enough and can lack the kind of tools, insights, and support needed. We are then left asking, what else is there? I believe that these curiosities, feeling all that we do, is meant to connect us to our true self by learning to know ourselves in every way and love ourselves deeply. The journey of growth and healing involves the use of many different tools, a powerful one being the tool of therapy.
