I am a queer therapist who believes the action of therapy is achieved through the building of a safe, collaborative, and trusting relationship between client and therapist. Two people come together with their individual identities and construct a space to facilitate growth, change, and insight. In this space we can begin to explore experiences of trauma, relationship, conflict and intention. It is through this exploration that we can begin understand our relationship to the world.

I utilize a humanistic, collaborative and solution focused counseling approach with clients, involving actively listening to their life narrative, and exploring how it may be preventing them from reaching desired goals.
