I have 17 years of clinical experience working with individuals, couples, and families. I also train master's and doctoral level student therapists at a local university to help clients confront their life challenges. Throughout my career, I have never met a truly "broken" person incapable of making positive changes, and I work collaboratively with my clients to resolve their unique issues. My focus is increasing personal empowerment and agency in one's life increasing their ability to navigate life's problems. I'm a very laid-back professional and I take pride in being flexible with my clients.

Are you tired of repeating the same cycles and patterns in life? Battling past trauma, unhealthy relationships, stress, anxiety and low self-esteem? Well let’s talk, sometimes you need someone to support and validate your feelings and experiences, other times you need someone who can challenge your irrational thoughts. With therapy you can learn the tools to recognize and change the self-sabotaging thinking and behaviors.

I love the Shannon L. Alder quote "Courage doesn't happen when you have all the answers. It happens when you are ready to face the questions you have been avoiding your whole life." Taking the first step toward change is scary and difficult. I strive to make a safe space where these steps can be taken in a judgment-free environment. It's important to feel heard and have your experience valued.

I believe everyone deserves to feel acknowledged, understood, and supported in effecting desired changes in their lives. I work with adult individuals who are navigating transitional life periods, identity issues, processing existential questions, grief, and the end-of-life. I have a particular passion for working with queer, trans, non-monogamous individuals, and political activists and organizers.

Are you in tune with your true self and living your best life? If you feel like your inner purpose or clarity is lacking then let me reassure you: you're not alone! There are patterns of dissonance in everyone, it's part of the human condition. These patterns are passed down through generations and affect each of us in our experience of wellness. It’s the childhood programming or traumas and painful experiences that create wounds carried throughout a lifetime. Being confused about your true nature or downright believing the lies you tell yourself can feel like a prison of your own making.
