I provide a warm, non-judgmental, and collaborative space for you to explore your concerns and develop further insight into yourself. By examining how your past experiences and relationships inform how you approach the world today, I will help you identify the negative beliefs and patterns that may be limiting your growth and mental well-being. I encourage you to reflect on and challenge these beliefs to understand how they impact your perceptions of yourself and your life. Through this process, I encourage self-compassion to help you build a better relationship with yourself and increase self-esteem.
As a queer psychotherapist, I am passionate about working with other folks in the LGBTQIA+ community. I specialize in working with LGBTQIA+ adults and couples navigating life changes, relationships, gender and sexual identity exploration, anxiety, and depression.
I have an eclectic approach to psychotherapy. While I am psychodynamically oriented, I also utilize different approaches, such as Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), and Dialectical Behavioral Therapy (DBT) techniques when needed. I work with you to use the approach that fits best for your unique needs.
