I am eager to help LGBT and straight couples improve the quality of their relationships"”to move away from surface anger to the vulnerable expression of deeper emotions, like disappointment, sadness and fear.

Life brings us a range of experiences that can evoke feelings of joy, excitement, and happiness, where we feel as though we are on top of the world, to those that bring more discomfort including sadness, despair, anger, or uncertainty. As we traverse through our lives, it is without question, we will feel the full range of these emotions. When life does become more uncomfortable or unmanageable, therapy can assist us in finding ways to move through these moments by building resilience and coming out on the other side with grace and a better sense of ourselves.

After growing up in a small industrial town in Ohio, I earned a bachelor’s degree from Georgetown University in the nascent field of Psycholinguistics. Upon graduation I became an activist at its inception when West Hollywood became the “first gay city in the US”. As a manager of a major niteclub I'm proud to have the doors for guests and staff alike without regard to race, sexuality, gender identity, or abledness and my Practice reflects such inclusivity. I see primarily Adult Individuals of any age; as well as teens ranging in age from 14yo+; and Couples.

You deserve the support you need. When we are struggling with anxiety, PTSD, personal or relationship transitions, life can feel especially difficult. Experiences of trauma, changes in our identity and relationships, legal or learning challenges can sometimes be overwhelming--even long after they happen. Often, beliefs that once provided guidance or comfort change, leaving us feel even more lost at sea. Yet deep within, we all have access to a feeling of our aliveness that can help us navigate these rough spots. Our work offers you safety and caring to bolster your strengths, recover your joy, and find your inner knowing once again.
