I am happy to work with individuals, couples, partners, and families, and can work with you short-term or long-term. I primarily work with young adults (ages 18-29) and adults (ages 30-64), and I also enjoy working with teens (ages 13-17) and older adults (ages 65+). I love working with people who are LGBTQ+ and neurodivergent! We can work on a variety of things, including (but not limited to): boundary-setting; communication; social, familial, and partner relationships; changing thoughts, feelings, and behaviors; time and task efficiency; healing from harm and trauma; and developing skills that support your holistic well-being.
My expertise is in the following areas: Gender identity, Sexual identity, Romantic identity, Trauma and posttraumatic stress disorder (PTSD), Eating disorders, Mood disorders (e.g., depression, anxiety disorders), ADHD, Substance use, and dual diagnosis. I use a variety of traditional, alternative, and critical theories, frameworks, and interventions.
I believe it is essential to take care of ourselves—our minds, bodies, and souls. Without taking care of our holistic needs, we can’t be the best versions of ourselves. When working with me, you can expect to: a) be heard, validated, and understood; b) genuineness, authenticity, and compassion; and c) challenging yet rewarding therapy sessions.
