I love working with teens, adults, and LGBTQIA2S+ clients.
My approach to therapy is collaborative, creative, and compassionate. My goal is to create a safe and warm space, so each client feels comfortable sharing what's on their mind and in their heart. This may include diving into trauma, grief, and other challenging life experiences that prevent a person from feeling at peace and operating at their highest potential. The philosophy that guides my work is that everyone has the inner wisdom needed to thrive. My role is to help clients access this inner wisdom so they can heal, grow and live the fulfilling life they are seeking.

My therapeutic approach is tailored to adults who are currently experiencing depression, anxiety, emotion dysregulation, interpersonal deficits, and other issues regarding the self. I am a member of the LGBTQIA2S+ community and work well with the individualistic and affirmative fashions in which human beings choose to self-identify. As a clinical social worker, I believe that the individual is part of system: the micro (familial), the mezzo (immediate community), and the macro (the world at large). I look forward to speaking with you.

As a licensed clinical psychologist, I have treated youth, adolescents, and adults with anxiety and OCD-related disorders since 2019.
Anxiety is a very common experience, and in times of real threat or danger, it is our best friend. However, anxiety can become unhelpful and maladaptive in situations when it is excessive, disproportionate to actual danger posed, or gets in the way of what we have to or want to do with our lives. This is the type of anxiety individuals typically come to see me for help, whether it is in the context of an anxiety disorder or an obsessive-compulsive and related disorder. Individuals who come to work with me want to take back what anxiety and OCD took from them in order to live their lives as they would like.

I specialize in working with young adults, including students and early career professionals, who struggle with anxiety, perfectionism, trauma, depression, burn-out and more. If you're asking yourself "how am I supposed to balance school/work, having a social life, eating healthy, exercising, having hobbies and taking care of my mental health?!" you are not alone. Adulting is hard, even if you feel like you "should" have it down by now. You might feel like your thoughts are always negative or spiraling out of control or you're always tense or can't seem to stay in the moment for things that are "supposed" to be fun.

I enjoy working with adults of all ages, and have a particular passion for working with those aged 65 and better and those who are providing care to others.

As your therapist, my goal is to help you clearly identify and explore the issue, and provide the assistance, guidance and coping skills to address an array of mental, emotional and general life issues, and restore hope. It is truly a pleasure to help you explore what's important to you and appreciate yourself in the world.

I also offer therapeutic support for trans and gender expansive adults pursuing medical transition following the WPATH SoCs, and QTBIPOC affirming perinatal & reproductive mental health.
As a therapist, I believe my first job is to witness. I aim to support a space that is safe enough for you to tell your own story, heal, and step further into your own power. I welcome open discussion of your identities, cultures, relationships, and experiences, including your experience of therapy itself, as it is happening. We’ll work to name how your experiences with structural oppression may have shaped your beliefs about yourself and how you cope. We’ll identify your strengths, and when it’s helpful, we’ll try out tools to support changes you may want to make.

I help adults of all ages who are tired of chasing perfection. Despite being ambitious, hard-working, and devoted to their relationships, my clients do not feel calm inside. When they first come in, they feel compelled to present an outside image that is more attractive, more accomplished, and happier than the next person. Underneath, they carry the secret that they don’t actually feel that great. They struggle with staying present in the moment and often feel exhausted. They avoid reaching out to people, because it doesn't feel safe to show their weaknesses. Their fears get in the way of the life they want in so many ways.

I treat adults experiencing a variety of life's challenges, including relationship problems, transition challenges, career worries, money-related difficulties, health concerns, anxiety, and depression. This work combines practical guidance, problem solving and education. My therapeutic style is collaborative. Together, we look for insight into the origins of unwanted behavioral, emotional, and relationship patterns, then use that new knowledge to develop strategies to help you get "unstuck" and move forward in your life.
