Welcome! I provide therapeutic services to children, adolescents, and young adults who are working through some of life’s hardest moments, looking to improve their mental health, launching a personal healing and development journey, or aiming to build more security in their purpose, wellness, and happiness. Whether it be anxiety, depression, trauma, loss and grief, life transitions, or other challenges, I will support you and help you take the leap towards positive change. I also work with women with ADHD, focusing on the gender-specific challenges and stigmas that neurodivergent women experience.

Sexuality is so challenging to talk about for most people that getting to the point where you are online this minute searching for a therapist comfortable talking about it with you is a major success. Even if you get no further than this sentence right now, you have already overcome a monumental hurdle; you will be able to do it again, and your next search will be easier. The path to sexual fulfillment can be grueling to navigate alone, and I am happy to explore whatever is on your mind regarding your sexuality, be it pleasure challenges, trauma, sexual or gender identity, non-monogamy, kink, addiction, and everything in between.

Are you ready to move through some of the challenges that you or your child has been facing? As a Licensed Professional Counselor and Registered Art Therapist I believe that everyone has an innate ability to heal. Art Therapy, Expressive Arts Techniques, Psychotherapy, and Mindfulness Based practices help empower clients to integrate inner/outer disconnections of self, heal wounds and release stuck energies, in a safe environment. Art Therapy improves self-esteem, cultivates resilience, promotes insight, helps with emotional regulation, and increase overall well-being physically, mentally, emotionally and spiritually.

Therapy is not about fixing you as if you're broken. To me, it's about recovering from suffering, and connecting deeply and authentically to your thoughts, feelings, desires and dreams. It can be difficult to begin a new therapy relationship and be vulnerable, especially when relationships have been harmful in the past. I think taking the risk anyway reflects an inherent pull toward repairing the old wounds that restrict our capacity to live freely and joyfully. I love working with LGBTQIA folks, relationships, trauma, and difficulties with shame, self-love and acceptance.

Thank you for visiting my profile.. How do you know that the unknown person you are reaching will be able to be attuned to you in the ways that you need? It's hard to discern this just from reading someone's profile. Most of my clients feel they know me before they reach out because they are referred by current or former clients. I like that but what about individuals who don't have the benefit of that pre-service information? I usually suggest potential clients schedule a FREE meeting for this reason. I hope you will consider doing exactly that.
