Thank you for taking the time to read my profile, I’m glad you’re here. As your therapist, it's my intent to guide you toward deeper understanding of yourself and give you the opportunity to process your emotions in a safe, empathetic environment. Anxiety, depression, and trauma can take up so much space in your life that it makes it hard to have patience, connect with loved ones, and focus on your responsibilities and passions. In therapy with me, we can gently challenge unhealthy thought patterns and establish healthier coping skills to lessen the power these issues hold over you.

We can also work together to challenge harmful and limiting social norms that prevent you from living as your authentic, whole self. My areas of specialization include queer-identifying clients, ASD/ADHD, anxiety, depression, trauma, and somatic therapy. I work with my clients so that you can speak your truth and live a life that aligns with your values.

Looking for a therapist to suit your needs is often a challenging journey, and you’re brave for taking those first steps. Please reach out to schedule if you’re curious about deepening your connection with yourself and starting on a path toward healing and peace.
