Each path to healing is unique. My relational approach to therapy is collaborative and guided by compassion, understanding, and meaning. It takes courage and resilience to process difficult emotions, sit with grief and painful experiences, or face confusion. My priority in session is to offer a supportive and non-judgmental space for clients to explore their experience safely while finding a meaningful way forward. Drawing from a holistic blend of approaches, clients can discover their own strength, clarity, and wisdom and become empowered to build lives that are more peaceful, joyful, and fulfilling.

Welcome! Finding support is such a hard yet valuable step in your healing journey! I work in a client-centered way to help you understand & cope with present-day stressors and get to the root of the issues/trauma that keep you feeling stuck or disconnected. I use validation, active listening, and intuition to ensure you feel seen, heard, and supported by someone who deeply cares. Trying to manage an issue that seems like no one understands can be a very lonely experience, and sometimes it takes an outside perspective to gain a felt sense of clarity. My goal is to quickly have you feeling like you aren’t alone as you heal & grow.

People come to me with problems of anxiety, depression, trauma, and relationship issues. I have been in practice for 28 years working with adults of all ages, and I am attuned to understanding childhood patterns that no longer work and may contribute to one's current stress. Trained in both psychodynamic understanding, as well as the newer modes of somatic intervention, I remain focused while maintaining a constancy of care and compassion. As clients and therapists, we all work with our strongest intention to create a peaceful and esteeming approach to ourselves and with the people most important to us.

Being a therapist is a privilege and an honor. I care deeply about your reality and experience of the world. I have a Master's degree in Counseling, focusing on psychodynamic and feminist theory. My psychodynamic training means I have experience listening in a specific way that invites us, together, to discover and make meaning out of the experiences in life. I believe that gaining insight means learning to be open to learning about ourselves curiously and compassionately. All parts of you, including the ones deemed shameful or bad, are accepted into this space.

You've done what you know to do, exhausted your coping skills, and still find that anxiety, trauma, or difficult relationships are keeping you from the quality of life you know (or at least hope) is possible. It may be that it becomes too uncomfortable in your body to make the changes you'd like to or that you've lost sight of what you even want. I can help you find relief. Even if your challenges are creative or social in nature: stage fright, audition anxiety, writer's block, public speaking dread, networking anxiety, dating fears. You don't have to live in fear!

As a neurodiverse queer transgender woman and a survivor, I know how hard it can be to seek desperately needed help, only to be made unwelcome by the very professionals we trust to provide that help. I always strive to meet my clients with openness, respect, and compassion.
