I work with adolescents, adults, children, couples, families, and groups. As a counselor, I believe the most important element in treatment is the relationship between the therapist and the client. Utilizing this relationship we can work together to address many of life's challenges. It is my goal to help clients learn coping skills in a supportive, warm and nonjudgmental environment. My experience includes working with trauma survivors, mood disorders, depression, anxiety, adjustment disorders and family conflict while focusing on relapse prevention.

Most therapists are caring people, willing to help with whatever you’re going through. But it’s not always so easy to find someone who fully gets your lived experience, particularly in the areas of LGBTQIA+ identity. That’s one reason why I specialize in helping those who are dealing with gender identity, gender dysphoria, and sexual orientation issues. I can empathize and affirm where you’re at right now, supporting you as you identify your authentic self, your needs, and your goals. With the right treatment you can work through this time of transition and feel more confident about the future.
