Waitlist for new clients
I became a therapist because I believe we all deserve a safe space to process. In this safe space, it is my goal to provide clients with an environment where they may fully be their authentic self. I specialize in providing services to individuals seeking support for trauma/PTSD, anxiety, depression, LGBTQIA+ concerns, life transitions, career exploration, relationship concerns, attachment work, grief and loss, and identity exploration.

Being a highly sensitive person, struggling with self-esteem and feeling overwhelmed can be draining. Maybe you are struggling with anxiety or negative thoughts about yourself and are feeling ready for therapy. Turning to family and friends can be great, but therapy is a place where the focus is all on you. Reaching out for help is courageous and caring towards yourself. To find clarity, it helps to have someone truly listen to you. When you are heard, you find what it is you value and need. Having support in therapy can lead you towards empowerment and confidence.

I would like to help my clients on their journey of self-discovery. I feel it is important for one to understand all that makes them who they are and how they function, so that when they make goals, they are able to achieve them. If you are struggling through anxiety, depression, trauma, or low self-worth, then I want to work with you, whether it means working with you and your partner, your family or on your own. When you are able to understand yourself and your needs, then the tools and skills needed to help you are easier to select and be more useful in our counseling together.

I chose the path of becoming a therapist because I strongly believe that everyone deserves to have a space where they feel truly heard, understood, and supported. Delving deeper into the realm of sex therapy, I hold the conviction that our sexuality lies at the very core of our identity, and it is essential for each individual to feel empowered and confident in this aspect of themselves. The journey of therapy is a challenging and deeply personal one for each person, which is why my primary focus as a clinician is to approach each client with empathy, understanding, and unwavering honesty.

There are times when we need a little help getting through the anxiety, worry and other stressors that pull us down. The function of counseling is a journey of self-exploration, meant to increase the level of self-understanding and self-awareness. It is my job as the counselor to help foster and nurture that level of growth by creating a safe and supportive environment. People change in a variety of ways therefore I use several psychological theories to practice from.

My goal is to create a space where clients can feel comfortable and empowered to explore who they are so that they may become their authentic self. I am a strong believer in the relationship between therapist and client being a collaborative one, where you have just as much of a say in your treatment and will always be met from a place of non-judgment and curiosity. As a neurodivergent, queer woman, I understand all too well how difficult it can be to find real affirming care and just how relieving it is to find someone who actually "gets it." I aim to work from an antiracist, intersectional, sex positive, antiableist perspective.

If this is your 1st or your 100th time seeking therapy, I want to let you know that you are one step closer to a better and healthier lifestyle. Harboring secret thoughts, feelings, shame, and guilt can be very difficult to handle on your own. Sharing these with a stranger can be difficult as well, but I do want to reassure you, it will be easier.

As human beings, we are constantly striving toward becoming our most authentic selves. When we are living life authentically, we can envision a clear path toward what is truly important to us, and can build a life filled with purpose and joy. This journey toward authenticity can become complicated by challenges such as life stressors, past trauma, mental health issues, and more. When these challenges arise, I aim to provide guidance to my clients in helping them re-align with their values and come back to what is most important in their lives, once again illuminating the path toward authenticity.

We are all on a journey together. This world that we live in can be incredibly beautiful, daunting and abysmal at the same time. It can be easy in our current culture to get lost in electronics, work, school, family, trauma, etc. We often begin to define ourselves by our work, car, and endless things. This is not the essential self, we were not born to be lost in this suffering. I believe we can work together to create the world that you dream of, and we can have real human heart to heart interactions. Through these encounters we discover ourselves, and begin to heal and live from our heart in an authentic and beautiful way.
