Carol Rodgers once said If we are able to accept ourselves just as we are, then we can change. Likewise, I believe that everyone has the unique ability to discover significance within themself. This path to personal development is often found within the context of meaningful relationships. A therapeutic relationship can offer helpful guidance towards radical acceptance, profound healing and transformational growth.

I use a down-to-earth, casual approach to therapy and above all, prioritize the therapeutic relationship.
As a queer therapist, it is crucial for me to ensure your concerns are taken seriously, and you are able to show up as your authentic self. Therapy means having a brave space to explore, reconnect with ourselves, and express emotions (maybe some laughing, crying, and swearing are involved too). I specialize working with folks that have experienced trauma & PTSD, anxiety, life transitions, LGBTQIA+ related concerns, and survivors of gender-based violence (i.e., sexual assault, domestic violence, human trafficking).

Life has a way of happening to us sometimes, and we realize we might need support, but fear stops us from taking the next step forward. I like to take time to get to know each person and build a relationship with them that conveys trust, respect, and understanding. My goal as a therapist has been to be a support for individuals and walk with people in their journey to become the best versions of themselves. If I am your therapist, you can expect to be met with empathy, support, respect, and understanding. When anyone comes through my door, they can expect not to be judged or shamed for any of their history or previous experiences.

I am most passionate about walking with clients experiencing anxiety, depression, grief, identity, self-esteem, body image, relationship challenges, and adjustment (into college or into young adult life), but find purpose in all my counseling relationships. In those relationships, I find it equally important to grieve and sit in brokenness and pain with clients as it is to celebrate growth, healing, and health.

My work consists of providing a welcoming, profoundly non-judgmental atmosphere where one can experience the safety that human relationships may offer. I truly believe people first need the basics. We connect and flourish in therapy when provided with acceptance, respect and dignity in a non-shaming relationship. I take a holistic approach and incorporate foundational needs that are often overlooked. Sometimes the simplest solution may be most effective, while other situations may call for a deeper dive that will uncover a path to healing. Regardless, I leave the direction and pacing up to my clients to preserve autonomy.

Relationship Issues Therapists
While need for human connection appears to be innate, the ability to form healthy, loving relationships is learned. Some evidence suggests that the ability to form a stable relationship starts to form in infancy, in a child's earliest experiences with a caregiver who reliably meets the infant's needs for food, care, warmth, protection, stimulation, and social contact. Such relationships are not destiny, but they are theorized to establish deeply ingrained patterns of relating to others. The end of a relationship, however, is often a source of great psychological anguish.
