Navigating life can be challenging, and we all can use some extra support along the way. Whether you’re seeking support due to ongoing mental health concerns, interpersonal relationships, or to process current life events, it’s all-important! I believe that therapy provides an opportunity for folks to help discover who they are, who they want to be, and what their purpose in life is. Our lived experiences shape who we are and how we behave, but it doesn’t have to define us. Through self-exploration, we can learn to be the best version of ourselves and simultaneously recognize our flaws are not our failings.

Nosce te Ipsum” — “Know Thy Self” (Latin) Specializing in solution-focused, cognitive behavioral, and mindfulness-based strategies, I offer a comfortable environment where my clients develop the tools required to increase their understanding of how beliefs, perceptions, and behaviors shape identity. Therapy, above all else, is an investment in self-knowledge. Who better to understand than the person you are with 24/7? The more you comprehend, the more confident you feel, and the better equipped you are to navigate life’s uncertainties.

As a systemic therapist, I think of people kind of like nesting dolls: we all go through life as the little one in the middle, whole and independent, yet undeniably we are nestled in larger contextual structures. I will meet you with compassion, humor, and non-judgment in the therapy space, holding your whole picture in mind as we work together to integrate the realities of your context with the realities of your heart. All parts of you are welcomed and held. I am a queer-identifying provider and enjoy supporting clients in navigating their own identities.

Hello! I firmly believe that individuals are always in the process of becoming, continually shaped by their thoughts, emotions, actions, and surroundings. Recognizing that growth can encompass positive transformation as well as profound loss, I use relational, humanistic, and narrative approaches. I am committed to dismantling barriers to authenticity and connection, especially for those navigating or aspiring to live counter-culturally and I work with folks in all relationship configurations. Transitioning to psychotherapy after a long tenure in the arts, I bring an artist's paradigm of thinking and relating to my practice.

How we interact with ourselves and others is result of our own early childhood experiences, traumas, and attachment. As we get older we hold onto these psychological foundations and patterns. These often drive maladaptive behaviors, relationship distress, anxiety, and overall dissatisfaction.

I believe that the best therapy is radically empathetic and real, that all people hold the innate capacity for healing, and that there is courage, strength, and healing when we are able to express and release our emotional pain. With more than a decade of experience providing psychotherapy to individuals from all walks of life, I assist individuals arrive at their own truth and walk towards living a more authentic life: one that that is more in line with who they are, what they believe, value, and want for themselves.

Life is constantly moving, changing, and evolving. Sometimes it feels like too much to take on alone. In a fast-paced world with many truths, I enable individuals to fully understand themselves in a warm, collaborative, and judgment-free environment. I know what it feels like to be scared to take the first step; to go through the hard work in order to grow. Because of that, it makes me the therapist I am today. Empathetic, understanding, and compassionate. These qualities are what I bring into our sessions in order to support you in becoming the best version of yourself.

I specialize in working with adults who are looking for a space to learn about and feel compassion towards themselves. I became a therapist because of the inherent value I believe that being seen, known, and held by another can provide. I understand the significance of and deeply value the therapeutic relationship, which I believe is one of the most powerful tools for change. I use warmth, humility, humor, and empathy to approach my clients. I often work with adults coping with depression, anxiety, grief, the after-effects of trauma, perinatal and postpartum concerns, and familial and relationship issues.
