I'm here to support you in connecting with your true, authentic self. Across the lifespan, we face struggles that make it difficult to understand ourselves and communicate honestly with our loved ones. I help children, adolescents, adults, and families learn what they need and how to meet those needs. We all need to feel a sense of groundedness, safety, and home within ourselves and our relationships. For those of you who feel lost or like you have fallen behind, I support you in lovingly finding your way.
I specialize in working with children, teens, adults and neurodivergent youth/adults struggling with anxiety, peer relationships, and family relationships. I offer play therapy, sand tray therapy, expressive arts therapy, and family therapy. As a queer, nonbinary, and neurodivergent therapist, I also offer LGBTQ+ and neurodiversity affirming therapy.
Whether your child or family needs support, or you are searching for your own healing, I invite you to reach out. You deserve time and space to heal and to grow. It would be an honor to take this journey with you. I offer a free 30-minute video consultation to see if we could be a good fit.
