Great to meet you!

I’m a Licensed Mental Health Counselor who specializes in supporting neurodivergent individuals, particularly children and adolescents. My work centers on helping clients navigate anxiety, identity exploration, and life’s challenges in a safe, inclusive, and affirming space. I’m passionate about providing gender-affirming care and meeting each client exactly where they are. My goal is to build trust, foster connection, and empower clients to thrive as their authentic selves.

My approach to therapy

In sessions, I focus on creating a space where clients feel safe, supported, and accepted for who they are. I work together with each person, centering their voice and what they need. My style is warm, flexible, and conversational, and I meet clients where they’re at. I use person-centered and CBT-based approaches with a neurodiversity-affirming and gender-affirming lens.

What you can expect from me

In our first session, my goal is to help you feel comfortable and heard. We’ll spend time getting to know each other, talking about what brings you to therapy, and what support might look like for you. There’s no pressure to have everything figured out right away. I’ll walk you through the process, answer any questions, and work with you to set goals that feel realistic and meaningful.
