I am committed to helping my clients understand themselves as deeply as possible and I work best with individuals who are curious and driven to better understand their thoughts, feelings, and behaviors. I believe that when we gain insight into ourselves and how we relate to others, we have taken the first essential step towards making meaningful changes in our lives that can lead to a reduction of psychological distress. My clients would describe me as genuine, engaged, and curious.

My ideal client is someone who seeks a safe and supportive space to explore their identity and experiences. They may be navigating the challenges of being LGBTQIA+ or coping with trauma. Their needs include understanding, validation, and practical strategies for managing emotions and relationships. Their goals revolve around healing, self-acceptance, and finding fulfillment. They want to live authentically and thrive in a world that sometimes feels unwelcoming. They seek therapy because they believe in the power of self-discovery and growth, and they're ready to invest in their well-being.

Do you appear to "have it all together," but inside have a constant feeling of inadequacy, with a critical inner voice whispering to you that you're never good enough? Have you tried talk therapy before and gained understanding of your issues, but not felt any real change in your life? Talk therapy might not go far enough to help you heal trauma and change limiting patterns.

I think we can all agree that feeling stuck and directionless in life is a miserable feeling. It can also be deceiving. You might have everything “all together” on the outside, but in reality, you haven’t felt that spark in life for some time now. If you were being completely honest, how long do you think it’s been since you truly took care of your needs? If it’s been a while, you might have been putting the needs of others before your own, which means you could be in burnout territory. You deserve to feel excited about your life! You deserve to feel better than just "meh."

You are trying to shine bright like a diamond and have the things most of us desire for a good life. But there is something dimming your brilliance—it constricts you. You know, those feelings of doubt, dread, disgruntlement, desperation, or despair. Like that constant wondering about whether you are viewed as competent at work; like that disappointment you cover up with food, drink or overachieving because you haven’t met “the one;” like that hurt you carry from a past that shamed you or the depths of grief; or like the helplessness feel when your child is struggling.
