Do you find yourself stuck in survival mode and autopilot, barely going through the motions of the day? Or maybe you struggle with feeling secure in your intimate relationships due to past attachment wounds? Do you battle a harsh self-critic, low self-esteem, or people-pleasing tendencies that may make setting boundaries difficult? Or maybe you are navigating the complexities of holding intersecting identities in a world that can be less than accepting? You are valid, and you deserve a life where you can thrive, not just survive. A life where you can find joy and peace, even with the weight of past and current trauma.

Finding a place where you feel genuinely heard, understood, and valued is hard. Maybe you're seeking a safe, understanding place to explore your identity or struggles with someone who "gets it." No matter what brings you here, I'm glad you're here. Together, we will create a space where your whole, authentic self is welcomed, affirmed, and valued. You won't encounter judgment or someone telling you who you "should" be in this space. Instead, I believe that you are the expert on your own life and that your experiences, relationships, and traumas have profoundly shaped you.

As a Black, queer, trans person, I intimately understand how those with marginalized identities are often silenced and made to feel invisible. In my practice, I prioritize creating a space where your voice is centered and valued. I believe that true healing and growth come when we reconnect with ourselves and with others in meaningful ways, and I strive to create an environment where you can fully show up as yourself.

Do you love video games? Comic books? Dungeons and Dragons? Do feel nervous or afraid all the time? Or sad, disconnected? Have you ever felt like an outcast, misfit, or weirdo? Have you ever asked yourself "Is any of this even real?" or "Am I an NPC?" If so, you may have just found your therapist. I work with geeks, nerds, dorks, and dweebs, LGBTQIA folx, the Kink and Polyamory/ENM communities and people of all cultures and spiritualities. So let's play Minecraft while you process, write fanfic about overcoming adversity, or if you're brave, use Dark Souls to practice coping with big emotions. Makes therapy sound kinda fun, right?

Do you find yourself wishing your relationships with others were deeper? Do you crave intimacy, to feel known, listened to, and valued? In our world today, this deep sense of connection can be difficult to attain. As a therapist, I prioritize relationship, offer therapeutic connection, and facilitate intrapersonal and relational growth. I work with individuals to explore identity, sexuality, and the difficulties that may come along with attempting to know one’s self deeply and live authentically, such as anxiety, depression, grief, and family conflict. I particularly enjoy and specialize in working with queer and bisexual women.

I believe that health and wholeness are fostered by authentic connection- to self, to others, and to the larger web of life. From my perspective, the therapeutic process is about intentionally creating and experiencing connections, especially to one's self, that support the development of resilience and empowerment, and ultimately healing and thriving. I aim to create an alliance with my clients that promotes a feeling of safety so that curiosity, exploration, self-reflection, and connection are possible. In our alliance, my clients and I collaborate to generate self-inspired change that suits their unique life and spirit.

I became a therapist because I believe everyone is struggling with something, and no one deserves to struggle alone. I provide skills-based therapy to give adults and adolescents tools you can use to create a life more aligned with how you wish to live. If you feel like you wear your emotions on your sleeve, have been told you are impulsive, or struggle to keep relationships, the Dialectical Behavioral Therapy (DBT) I offer may be helpful for you. If you feel you have to hide your emotions, struggle with perfectionism and loneliness, or often feel like you are wearing a mask, then you may find Radically Open DBT to be helpful.

There are many reasons why you might be seeking therapy at this very moment. It could be because of a major life event- a death, a cancer diagnosis, the end of a relationship, or trauma. It could be because of a lot of small things that have accumulated over time. It could be preventative or restorative. Or it could be just because. You might be therapy-curious, or wonder if you even need therapy. Whatever has brought you to this point, I believe that the most important part of a therapeutic relationship is connection. Our first session is an opportunity to get to know each other and see whether we both feel like it’s the right fit.

I am a clinical psychologist who find sacred purpose in helping clients navigate the complexity of relationships in all their suffering, beauty, and diversity. This includes the relationship to our self, which has often been wounded by other relationships-with family, partners, friends, colleagues, faith, and society. Since depression, anxiety, and PTSD often have roots in relationship distress, my work supports you to heal relational wounds, ease emotional pain, and repair trust in your self’s inner wisdom to create a dynamic, loving life that aligns with your truth. My therapy style is compassionate, creative, and trauma-informed.

Welcome! I'm an EMDRIA certified trauma specialist with 7 years of experience helping my patients desensitize, reprocess and heal from traumatic memories, grief and negative beliefs with EMDR therapy. EMDR is a structured therapy that encourages the patient to focus briefly on the trauma memory while simultaneously experiencing bilateral stimulation (typically eye movements), which is associated with a reduction in the vividness and emotion associated with the trauma memories. The American Psychiatric Association, the American Psychological Association, NAMI and WHO recognize EMDR therapy as an effective treatment.
