I love assisting clients in feeling more confident in their lives, handling emotional and mental stressors with greater ease, and developing a repertoire of coping skills to find their center under pressure. I'm in the process of opening my private practice and working through the credentialing process. I offer a reasonable self-pay rate during this transition.
I am a gender-affirming therapist and have completed certification requirements with WPATH. I use a blend of cognitive therapy, motivational interviewing, and EMDR in my approach.
I am compassionate and will meet you where you are in your wellness journey. I am an advocate for gender-affirming care and a proud member of NASW Ohio.
