Let's collaborate together on how we can best meet your goals to live authentically and thrive. I support individual adults, adolescents, relationships, chosen and birth families. My work is rooted in the belief that therapy is a collaborative and transformative process. I am dedicated to helping clients navigate the complexities of their struggles. It’s my hope that through our work, you will find new pathways of resilience, freedom, growth, pleasure, balance, liberation and healing.
I have a focus on working with those who struggle with anxiety, depression, neurodiversity, trauma and navigating difficult relationship dynamics. As a queer and trans identified therapist, my passion is to provide gender affirming, sex-positive, trauma informed and inclusive mental healthcare from a social justice framework.
Navigating the world while experiencing mental health challenges is daunting without the support of a therapist. I work with people of all identities while holding empathy and awareness of the extra challenges that marginalized identities face. Please reach out to see if we would be a good fit. I look forward to connecting.
