In our work together, I will use humility, humor, and curiosity with my experiences as a gender- queer feminist, trauma survivor, and social justice and diversity advocate.
Those who tend to enjoy my approach are individual adults (18+) who are committed to self exploration, challenging past patterns, and personal growth. My practice focuses on people with symptoms of depression and/or anxiety that may stem from: lack of identity development (who am I?); adjusting to life changes–such as, going to college, career challenges, coming out, partnering/divorce, death of a loved one, mid-life crisis, retirement, empty nest; relationship conflicts–work or personal; past trauma; poor attachment to childhood caregivers; or experiences as part of a marginalized group (i.e. BIPOC, LGBTQIA+, women, immigrants).

I work with neurodivergent (gifted, ADHD, autistic, highly sensitive, and more) adolescents and adults, as well as LGBTQ and gender creative people. Neurodivergent individuals often face unique challenges such as high levels of self-criticism, existential depression, and difficulty in finding peers. In addition, our sensitivity and intensity are often poorly misunderstood and misdiagnosed by mental health professionals.

I also have 15 years of experience working with LGBTQ youth and adults.
As a Board Certified Art Therapist I give my clients a safe space where expression without judgment is supported. I work with adolescents and adults in both brief and long-term art psychotherapy. I work with people to transform trauma and anxiety, as well as those questioning sexuality and gender identity. The modality and practice of art psychotherapy combined with my background in depth psychology create a therapeutic experience that supports your own internal wisdom in the process. I am also practical and provide immediate skills to my clients for managing stress, changing detrimental thought patterns and behaviors, and gaining insight.

At the core of each person, I believe there is an innate basic goodness and predilection for health. Throughout our lives, trauma, difficult experiences, life transitions, and challenges can create barriers to accessing this innate health. These experiences can leave us feeling, lost, confused, anxious, or just stuck in our own minds. Imagine walking a confusing forrest path, and wondering where to turn next. In my practice, I aim to be your guide along that path. As a counselor, I help you navigate the process of getting to know yourself more deeply and act from a place of health and authenticity.

You're looking for a therapist! This is an exciting (and maybe slightly daunting) step in your growth and healing. By exploring this option for yourself, you’re moving closer towards taking your power back and prioritizing your mental and emotional well-being, and that’s huge! My role is to support you through this process of both unlearning the old patterns of thought and behavior that haven’t felt helpful to you, and learning new ways of navigating the world that allow you to feel connected and aligned.

Sexual addiction (SA) is a hidden addiction. It is a global problem, under-reported, and largely untreated. SA harms relationships, creates relational trauma for partners, and damages trust and intimacy in relationships. Addicts often engage in secrecy and feel shame and guilt about their behavior. Partners often feel betrayed and traumatized by the addicts behavior. Intimacy issues are often an underlying concern for both individuals and for couples. Like other addictions, SA can get progressively worse over the years. If untreated, SA can lead to relationship loss, divorce, job loss. financial problems, and legal problems.

I believe each person is innately capable of employing their own strengths and making their own choices toward growth and fulfillment. This often requires a great level of introspection and rediscovering strengths we do not know we have, practicing new skills, and releasing ourselves from lifelong negative beliefs we have held about ourselves and others. I want therapy to empower you. If you struggle with self-confidence or self-worth, my goal is to help you realize you are capable of achieving your own goals. I particularly enjoy working with clients with a history of trauma, anxiety, disordered eating, depression, or shame.
