I specialize in treating anxiety, anger management, depression, alcohol and substance use disorders, and Narcissistic Personality Disorder.
I utilize Rational Emotive Behavior Therapy (REBT) to help clients identify and dispute problematic beliefs, and re-frame them into productive patterns of thinking, feeling, and behaving. With REBT, you can learn to reduce and manage your anger, anxiety, depression, guilt, rage, shame, and/or addictive behaviors. We work together to identify and dispute your rigid demands and/or dire needs, and re-frame them into strong, healthy preferences, and your catastrophic thinking into proportionate appraisals of activating events.

My client base includes individuals from the LGBTQIA+ community as well as those who experience challenges with work related stressors, intimate relationships, depression, anxiety, substance abuse, or body image.
Clients seek out therapy for a myriad of reasons. Some are looking for a sensitive ear to listen to their troubles, while other clients have more specific goals for therapy. Still more would like to take a whole health look at their life to find the answers to their questions. As a member of the LGBTQIA+ community and someone who has embarked on a second career, my goal is to offer my clients a personalized approach to care that fits their individual needs.

The majority of my work centers on trauma and recovery, which can look like a lot of things. I work primarily (but not exclusively!) with LGBTQ+ individuals, neurodivergent folks, and those who have experienced addiction. My practice is strongly aligned with fat liberation and HAES (Health at Every Size). I love working with creative folks or those aiming to pursue something hard/worthwhile. I'm also available to work with other white folks who are looking to engage in anti-racist work.

Are you feeling unfulfilled, stressed, or hopeless? Do you desire to find purpose, direction, or simply understand yourself better? Many of our feelings and thoughts are outside of our awareness and continue to influence our everyday choices. Left unattended, these feelings and thoughts can come out in unhealthy ways – often resulting in depression, anxiety, substance abuse, and/or low self-esteem. As a result, we can feel powerless to change our current circumstances and end up self-sabotaging what we want out of life.
