I often work with individuals and couples struggling with anxiety, depression, autism spectrum disorder, and childhood trauma. I believe that change that occurs in therapy comes from forming a safe therapeutic relationship, while increasing your awareness of self, challenging your old beliefs, and establishing appropriate boundaries in relationships with others. I tend to be an active participant in therapy. I ask questions, offer observations, and look for patterns that may help provide a deeper understanding. However, I believe the client is the expert on themselves, and I trust in each individuals unique healing process.

The relationship with self is one of the most important relationships we have in life, as it has a profound impact on how we show up in every other relationship. Disruption to our relationship with self happens through a variety of avenues, such as: attachment issues, developmental trauma, life transitions, grief and loss, etc. I specialize in depression, anxiety, trauma, relational and family of origin issues, self-worth, coping, grief, spiritual needs, LGBTQ+, attachment, and many more. Together, we will work towards acceptance of self. Cultivating a stronger relationship with self to help you achieve your goals and truly thrive.

Sometimes in life we all need a “companion on the journey,” someone to partner with us and help make sense of our experience, ease our pain, and support our goals. As a therapist, I am committed to providing a safe environment where individuals can identify their strengths, recognize unhelpful patterns, and live into their goals. Working from an integrative, client-centered approach, I seek to support individuals wherever they are on their journey and my approach is holistic, collaborative, and non-judgmental. I value cultural humility and look forward to working with people of all backgrounds, identities, and walks of life.

The work we do is collaborative; it requires us both to be present and fully committed to your journey. My clients are honest about their strengths, virtues, successes and growth areas; curious about their emotions, triggers, and patterns; and committed to designing their lives in a meaningful way. Depending on their inner resources, needs, and concerns, I utilize a tailored, strengths-based approach to promote useful life goals through insight and action. This can be achieved by integrating a variety of modalities, both evidence and non-evidence based; and drawing from my personal, professional and spiritual background.

I am a white, neurodivergent, pansexual, cismale, and 3rd generation Italian-North European immigrant living on Puyallup / Steilacoom lands (Fircrest, WA) but born and raised in Očhéthi Šakówiŋ / Wahpekute lands (Minneapolis, MN). I work from a place that acknowledges my own identity and privileges in effort to help clients address their own identity, struggles, and role in systems of oppression. I value activism and allyship including addressing political issues directly in my work, examining my own assumptions and blind spots, and working to always increase my awareness of oppression and systemic issues.

I see us struggling with a pandemic of loneliness. Especially after COVID isolation, teens and younger adults, especially are at risk of experiencing a debilitating lack of connection, momentum, and purpose. Loneliness has the power to drag down every facet of our lives. The insecurity and depression that creep up in the dark depths of loneliness keep us down and away from the connection that we need. Therapy can be the life rope that begins us on our journey toward the light. I work well with clients who are skeptical about therapy for any number of reasons. I am confident you can thrive.

Life is tough. Many aspects of a person’s life can contribute to feelings of loneliness, an ongoing sense of being on edge, a lack of motivation, and extreme overwhelm. This can impact us in countless ways including a lack of boundaries, relationship challenges, day-to-day life, and a general feeling of instability in our lives. Trauma, anxiety, and depression can make it hard just to get through the day. People seek therapy for a variety of struggles. Whatever your reason is, we will work together on your destination toward self-awareness, healing, and personal growth. You do not need to go through this journey alone.

Therapy is where you come to reflect on life decisions and experiences and I am here for you through those moments. I would describe a session as being insightful and meaningful even if it is in subtle ways. We may spend some time talking about your daily life, or big things; some days it may feel like a big breakthrough happened and others, a casual conversation. All the things brought up are important to allow you and I to build a therapeutic relationship and to feel comfortable. Everything that you talk about contributes to your growth, even if it is not tangible yet.

I provide counseling services to all communities and specialize in non-monogamous relationships, individuals who have participated in the erotic trade industry and the kink and queer communities. My goal is to combat stigmas impacting marginalized communities by creating access to mental health resources. These stigmas create barriers to treatment, contribute to a lack of culturally competent therapeutic resources, infringe upon a person's bodily autonomy and contribute to discriminatory incidents.
