Congratulations on taking the first step towards healing. Change is inevitable. Whether transitions are planned or sudden, they can create feelings of uncertainty, anxiety, or sadness. I’m here to partner with you to navigate your thoughts and feelings during stressful times by creating a compassionate, judgement-free environment for exploration.

While my goal is to tailor treatment to meet the individual needs of my client, I specialize in Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to work through feelings of anxiety and depression associated with life changes. As an LGBTQIA+ ally, I strive to provide an inclusive, safe space for members of the LGBTQIA+ community.
For your convenience and to reduce barriers to receiving services, I provide online services only. Seeking therapy can seem daunting, but I am here to demystify the process and empower you to work towards being the best version of you, as defined BY YOU.
