It can be difficult to cope with intense emotions and to decide on what steps to take next when life brings its inevitable challenges and opportunities. I believe that clarifying who and what are most important in our lives can help us evaluate options and guide action, even when unpleasant emotions show up. I work with clients' unique strengths to develop healthier strategies to manage difficult thoughts, feelings, situations, and memories. My practice is grounded in compassionately delivering evidence-based therapy approaches including ACT, CBT, and EMDR.

I start where you are at the moment, to listen to your story. "Clinical diagnosis are important but they do not help... the crucial thing is the story." (Jung 1961). You may be undergoing a depression, or loss of soul, where life is no longer interesting, feeling disoriented, where the outside world may no longer have answers. Or perhaps you are looking for meaning to deepen your understanding of your life. I offer a vessel for healing. Together we can look at your story, and see what needs tending. I will be a companion as you go deep within yourself, and retrieve the forgotten parts of yourself.

Utilizing a variety of approaches and styles, my passion is helping individuals and systems overcome life changes, stressors, and figuring out the “why”. I have experience supporting those of all ages with depression, anxiety, executive functioning issues, career development, and most recently, I spent 2 years leading facilities catered to those struggling with the disease of addiction. Discomfort comes from incongruence within yourself - between what is present and what you’d like to be. You are the expert on your life, and together we can make sure you are on the path to being the best version of you possible!

Whatever reason brought you here, I am inspired by your bravery; you’ve taken the first step! It’s important to me that you have autonomy over your therapy. Here’s some insight into me to help you decide if I am the right person to accompany and support you on your journey. I am passionate about finding the root causes of undesired emotions, thoughts, and behaviors. I encourage healing through non-judgmental compassion, education, and mindfulness. I typically practice through a feminist, trauma-informed theoretical lens, although I embrace eclectic approaches to best suit your unique identity.

To the outside world it may appear that you have it altogether, yet no matter how hard you try you suffer from self-doubt, people pleasing, burn out or guilt when putting your own needs first. You may be carrying the weight of others’ expectations, feeling disconnected or questioning your worldview. You're stuck and something needs to change. I believe every person already has within themself what they need to change, and it is my role as a therapist to walk with you and help illuminate the parts of you which have been blocking you from living a fully authentic life.

Everyone enters therapy with different goals. Whether a person is very clear on what they want to accomplish or still figuring things out, I encourage them to make choices at their own pace. I believe every person is the expert of their own experiences. I prioritize working with sick/mad/disabled, queer and trans people of color of all ages, but particularly late adolescents and emerging/young adults. I am affirming, sex and kink positive, and experienced in helping navigate poly & non-monogamous relationships. I also specialize in exploring and building skills/resources with neurodivergent individuals.

I work with couples, families, individuals, and children. I have experience working with anxiety, depression, disordered eating, and life transition issues. I believe that every person is equipped with their own unique skill sets that can help them in and out of the therapy room. These skills are often buried in the harmful stories we tell ourselves, but these stories can be edited and rewritten. I wholeheartedly believe in providing culturally sensitive and competent care to each and every client.

Whether you’re seeking therapy due to dissatisfaction regarding a specific issue in your life or just trying to find peace in the midst of world events, I strive to help clients develop self-compassion, resilience, healing and greater happiness. While suffering is a normal part of being human, therapy provides a safe space to explore our response to internal and external stresses and develop a greater sense of peace, meaning, and fulfillment. In addition to genuine concern and empathy, clients have mentioned my 'particular blend of pragmatism and humor' as helpful in establishing a collaborative therapeutic relationship.
