I enjoy working with clients who hated their last therapy experience, clients who feel defeated by their relationship with food and their body, and clients who are sick of anxiety ruling their life. I aim to support, challenge, and empower you to determine what your goals are and make meaningful progress toward them. Anyone seeking support to confront their unique difficulties is welcome here. I am well-versed in trauma-informed care and focus on being sensitive to cultural issues and marginalized groups. As a member of the LGBTQ+ community, I take pride in providing LGBTQ+-affirming care.

As a Licensed Professional Clinical Counselor, My primary goal is to create a collaborative relationship with my clients that is built on trust, honesty, and authenticity. I am passionate about empowering women of all ages and teenagers ages 13 and above. I believe that everyone deserves to be heard and understood in the context of their life story. I strive to create a safe place where my clients can explore their experiences- a space free from judgment where people feel comfortable sharing their stories and finding healing.

If you or your child are suffering from an OCD or an anxiety disorder you are not alone. Anxiety disorders are the most common mental illness and yet most sufferers do not have access effective treatment. The good news is that if you or your loved one is troubled with unwanted thoughts or worries, physical symptoms due to anxiety, perfectionism, phobias, health fears, or any other anxiety there is help. Cognitive-Behavioral Therapy (CBT) and more specifically exposure therapy has repeatedly shown to be the most effective approach for defeating anxiety and OCD.

I specialize in helping LGBTQ+ people heal from the impacts of trauma. Using EMDR and other trauma and attachment focused techniques, I work with clients who's experiences of sexual or relationship trauma, difficult family relationships, marginalization, and more, have shaped how they see themselves and the world. As a queer, non-binary, trans person, I offer an environment where you don't have to "explain" your queerness, nor choose between a queer therapist and a trauma-focused one. My approach is social justice oriented, and based in the power of authenticity, acceptance, and attachment.

Do you feel like you've tried everything, but you just can't move forward? I incorporate evidence-based techniques, including Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR), to help individuals (age 8+) process traumatic experiences and work toward lasting healing. I enjoy working with kids, teens and families of all generations, including those in their sunset years. Regardless of your age or experiences, we all sometimes need a safe person to come alongside us.

I believe strongly that people can change through therapy and will work with you to make changes within yourself and in your life. I focus on providing a safe, nonjudgmental environment to help people change.

Do you feel like you've lost your sense of you? Anxiety can often keep us from enjoying or even participating in our lives. Do you feel like you are existing but not living? Is avoidance your best friend? Maybe intrusive thoughts are increasing the anxiety. Maybe, a disturbing thought crosses your mind and you think, "Why would I have a thought like that? This is not who I am." Maybe you can't sleep, you're exhausted, and you miss yourself... the real you. The most important relationship you will ever have is with yourself; nurture the relationship, grow, and evolve.

Now I want to distill my experience and training to focus on helping individuals with trauma-related symptoms, OCD, and anxiety.
