I have over twenty years of experience in helping people recover from very difficult situations including a cancer diagnosis, death of a spouse or a parent, anxiety and depression.
Have you gone through a recent crisis—a cancer diagnosis, loss of a loved one—that has turned your world up-side-down? Are you having problems turning your mind off at night? Does one worry lead to another? Do you automatically think the worst thing is going to happen? Are you having trouble getting out of bed in the morning, feeling stuck, or lacking motivation? I can help. My patients tell me they have made their best progress by working with me. I believe we all have the ability to move through difficulties, cope with change and be better and stronger. I believe you can too if you have the right help.

It would be an honor to be a part of your healing journey to explore the intersectionality of various identities (gender, race, sexuality, etc.) and uncover how that may play a role in your personhood. I am a Licensed Master of Social Work with a passion to encourage and empower the potential that others see in themselves.

My job is to foster a collaborative and trusting space where you feel safe to explore your anxiety, your fear, your trauma, and your grief.
Healing happens relationally–within our communities, our families, and within ourselves. Therapy works best if we can build a safe and trusting relationship, so you should know a little bit about who I am! I am a white, queer and trans femme musician turned therapist. I am areligious, but I find many experiences to be deeply spiritual, including cooking, being in community with others, singing together, and walking in nature. Folks who do well with me don't fit the status quo, are navigating transitions, are noticing patterns in their relationships they want to examine and change, and are in search of healing and transformation.

As a parent, it can be difficult to know if or why your child is struggling. For younger kids, behavioral issues such as tantrums, extreme shyness, aggression, defiance, social or school issues are actually signs of anxiety, depression, grief, or low self esteem. We work with kids ages 5 and up, using play therapy and other engaging techniques to connect with your child on their level. Similarly, for adolescents, too mental health struggles can be dismissed as "teen angst." We work with adolescents ages 10-19 struggling with anxiety, depression, trauma, anger, ADHD, eating disorders, self esteem and more.

I am very experienced in working with adults struggling with relationship difficulties, anxiety, depression, perfectionism, loss, low self-esteem, addiction and a wide range of other concerns.
Deciding to begin psychotherapy is one of the kindest and most important choices you can make for yourself. It can be a turning point in your life, but it can also feel scary to talk to someone you don't know well. I work with individuals and couples, providing a warm, safe, confidential environment where I will listen carefully and where we will work together to understand and resolve the issues you are struggling with--both in terms of how they affect your current life and in terms of how they became issues in the first place.

I work with a wide variety of populations but have a special interest in students and young adults grappling with family and intimate relationships, the LGBTQ+ community, and those whose lives are touched by a medical diagnosis or loss.
Whether you are facing struggles that have been with you for years or ones that have emerged more recently, the decision to seek therapy is rarely easy. I will help you find practical solutions to life's obstacles, as well as a deeper understanding of the emotional blocks that have held you back. I offer you my focus, warmth and training, while gently nudging you towards your treatment goals. Previous to my clinical training, I spent nearly two decades in public media. I will channel the same curiosity and inquisitive spirit from my previous career into my therapeutic relationship with you.

I have received specialized training treating children and adolescents with anxiety or histories of trauma or loss.
Being a human being isn't easy. Unfortunately, it seems we are destined at times in our lives to experience pain, fear, confusion, and difficulty. The good news is that it is often through befriending and understanding that which is most painful, frightening, or challenging that we grow and find more enduring freedom and peace. As a therapist, I see my role as offering the nurturing environment within which individuals can better understand themselves and their lives, overcome their challenges, and discover their true potential.
