I worked as a therapist, supervisor, and director across many programs and clinics.
Achieving peace of mind is a worthwhile goal. When was the last time you put yourself first in the daily grind of taking care of, or doing things for, others? I personally tailor therapeutic strategies to your individual unique needs. I work from a trauma-responsive, strengths-based, and client-centered approach while balancing practical strategies you can walk away with. I can help you navigate anxiety, depression, ADHD, trauma, grief and loss, family and relationship issues, as well as employment and student stressors. I support in areas of maternal MH, foster care and adoption, and in an LGBTQ+ -affirming environment.

I offer supervision for therapists who are interested in deepening their understanding of pychoanalytic theory.
Are you feeling overwhelmed, anxious, or stuck? Do you find yourself repeating negative patterns? Do you want to make positive changes within yourself and your relationships? I believe that therapy is a collaborative process in which we together determine what you need. Years of experience contribute to my ability to create a safe space that will encourage deep exploration into understanding your emotional concerns. Often after completing the therapeutic process, many come to discover that they have more choices in their lives and report feeling more optimistic and alive.

Embracing identity and relationship transitions is my specialty. I work with Bisexual, Pansexual or Fluid sexual attractions. As well as Trans/GNC, Open Relationships, Polyamory, CNM and Disability, including Deaf/HH. If there's a part of your identity that's expanding/changing, and you want to incorporate it more into your everyday life, that uncharted territory can feel scary. Instead of "coming out", I'll show you how to "invite people in". You might be seeking more human connection or community; we're going to tap into how you can achieve that. I offer Therapy (to CA residents) or Coaching (worldwide) depending on your needs.

You want to experience what its like to have better control over your mind and body. You want somebody who really gets how painful anxiety is and can give you actionable steps to feel better. Anxiety is like a challenger who knows exactly what buttons to push to make you feel bad. To gain the upper hand against your anxiety, you need a true specialist who can point out the tricks and traps of your anxiety and empower you to finally make a stand against intrusive thoughts, worry, or panic with lasting results.
