As an LGBTQ & poly affirming therapist, I specialize in life transitions, relationship challenges, anxiety, and trauma.
I work with adults and couples to explore the life experiences that have brought them to the present moment. I particularly enjoy working with artists and creatives to help uncover deep-rooted issues that prevent sustained contentment in their life and work. Each person comes with their own unique history which shapes how they perceive and respond to the world around them. As an eclectic practitioner, I use a psychodynamic, humanistic, and mindfulness-based approach to help you look back in order to move forward. The goal of our work together is for you to find grounding and fulfillment in your life and relationships.

I believe that the primary mechanisms for change are the relationship between client and therapist (relational approach) and the client's development of insight (insight-oriented approach) and agency (mindfulness-based and DBT approaches).
I believe that you are the architect and the builder of the life you want, and I want to be there to support you in that. I believe that you are more than your current struggles and more than a diagnosis. I believe that every person has the right to grow into the fullest, most expansive version of themself, and that it's never too late to start. I believe that every person has the innate capacity to create whatever lasting changes that they seek, and is deserving of the support they need to do so.

Therapy, to me, is not about changing oneself but about understanding and examining unique patterns and behaviors. Having immersed myself in diverse cultural communities during my international schooling, I understand the importance of embracing and empowering individuals from all social backgrounds.

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.
