I've worked with issues ranging from Adjustment Disorders, Depression, Anxiety, PTSD, Schizophrenia, Personality Disorders, Sexual & Gender Identity, & Gender Dysphoria.
Are you ready to begin therapy? There comes a pivotal point in our lives we begin to start questioning our decisions and thoughts, the interactions we have in our intimate/platonic relationships, and/or why we feel "stuck". It often leads us to have difficulty regulating our daily thoughts, feelings, and emotions. The experience of hardships and emotional pain follow us like our own shadow contributing to the way we think, feel, and behave. I firmly believe early childhood experiences, complex and secondary trauma, daily stressors/challenges, and life adjustments shape who we are as individuals and how we relate to others.

Sex. Identity. Relationships. Gender. These are hard things to talk about, let alone show and share with the people you need most to understand you. Together we create a collaborative relationship where you feel comfortable exploring all elements of your life in a safe, judgment-free environment. My counseling practice is dynamic and engaging, a place where we can bring humor and healing to the painful parts. I bring 15 years of experience with sexuality issues and clinical counseling together to create an atmosphere where you will be seen as a unique individual with goals worthy of achieving.

I passionately believe in the power of therapy to serve as a catalyst for people to build insight, to build sense of self, and to empower themselves in their lives. I believe that healing happens in the context of supportive relationships, and therapy provides an opportunity for this. It is within the context of a safe therapy space that people can face and respond to the difficult and challenging issues that have resulted in distress. I offer a nonjudgmental, supportive counseling environment and encourage people to treat themselves with empathy and kindness.

Transgender Therapists
As a gender-diverse individual, why might I want to see a therapist who is also gender diverse?
A trans or gender-diverse client may want to see a therapist who is also trans or gender diverse because the client may feel safer sharing their experiences and more confident that the therapist will understand, validate, and support them. But trans or gender-diverse clients can also benefit from therapy with cisgender therapists; this is a personal decision based on the connection between the client and the therapist, and if that connection is strong, therapy will be successful.
What if I cannot find a therapist who shares my gender identity?
Therapy can still be effective if a therapist does not share a client’s gender identity; a large body of research indicates that the most important factor in successful therapy is the therapeutic alliance. A therapist can also be interviewed for sensitivity and competence on gender identity and expression to ensure they possess appropriate knowledge and skills. Many therapists have excellent training and extensive experience working with gender-diverse clients, and that expertise can be invaluable despite a therapist not sharing the same firsthand experiences.
How can I recognize a good therapist for working with gender-diverse clients?
An experienced therapist should be able to help clients explore their gender identity and expression, alleviate discomfort related to their gender identity, treat mental health challenges and trauma, address existing relationships and communication with family members and loved ones, and determine the next steps pertaining to nonmedical or medical gender-affirming interventions. To recognize a good therapist, clients can ask about these topics and explore their comfort and connection with the clinician.
How might I inquire about a therapist’s experience working with transgender clients?
Clients should feel comfortable asking therapists directly about their experience working with transgender or gender-diverse clientele. For example, clients may ask about the therapist’s training and education with regard to gender identity, how many trans clients they’ve worked with in the past, and what sorts of matters were discussed. You may wish to inquire how a therapist specifically supports the needs of transgender clients or clients questioning their gender identity. A good clinician who is nonetheless not the right fit for you is often happy to make referrals to others based on the concerns you articulate in a preliminary conversation.
