Great to meet you!

Are you an LGBTQIA+, transgender, or gender-expansive adult looking for a therapist who truly understands and affirms you? I work primarily with adults 18–45, including neurodivergent adults, people navigating ADHD or autism, dissociation, complex trauma, polyamory, or kink. I also support those healing from childhood abuse, neglect, or high-control family or religious environments. Together, we’ll explore what’s holding you back and help you move toward a life that feels authentically yours.

My approach to therapy

My approach is client-driven, strengths-based, and grounded in compassion and curiosity. I use Internal Family Systems (IFS), ACT, expressive arts, storytelling, TTRPGs, and solution-focused therapy. I also support executive-function challenges, identity exploration, dissociative systems, and provide WPATH letters for gender-affirming care.

What you can expect from me

You don’t have to explain, defend, or hide who you are in therapy. I believe you deserve a space where your identity, relationships, body, and experiences are respected—not judged or pathologized. If you’re feeling stuck, disconnected, or ready to better understand yourself, I’d be honored to work alongside you.
