First time to therapy? 2nd? 250th? Fear not! Clarity awaits on the other side of developing and applying insight. Every individual deserves to find a meaningful sense of purpose, direction, and belonging. After our first session together, I want for you to feel seen, understood, and supported upon a path of increasing possibility. My hope is that you will feel more capable in the moment of managing what life has waiting for you next.
I bring humor, playfulness, and a down-to-earth nature to the therapeutic journey. Individuals questioning their sexual identity, LGBTQ, and BIPOC clients will be supported and affirmed. Creative types are welcomed: use of creativity is an unlimited source of healing potential.
I’m honored to do this work. I’m grateful for the opportunity to meet you. I hope, if you’re seeking support as you read this, that you’ll reach out.

At our first session, I typically ask: "if therapy were to be successful, what would change for you?". Using your answer, I develop a treatment plan to reach your stated goal within three (3) months time. Therapy could continue beyond three (3) months, however clients typically track a significant decrease in problematic symptoms within the first three months of meeting.

I often use Dialectical Behavioral Therapy in my practice. In your first session, we'll explore what brought you to therapy and then decide the most appropriate ways to help you make progress. With DBT, we'll look at how divisive thinking impacts your emotions and experience. During treatment, I'll help you learn how to replace "or" with "and" to change your feelings for the better.
