Specializes in

Anxiety, Trauma, and Women's Issues

Great to meet you!

I am passionate about supporting my clients in discovering & embracing their most authentic selves through rejecting harmful narratives & unnecessary suffering. Together, we can work on freeing yourself from overwhelming levels of self-doubt, shame, and people pleasing tendencies. My favorite clients to work with are those who are seeking to build compassionate relationships with their bodies, develop healthy relationships, and explore sex and pleasure from a shame-free perspective.

A bit about my approach to therapy

Alongside a combination of evidence-based modalities, my therapeutic work is based off my values of empowerment, pleasure, compassion, and silliness. More importantly though, I personalize the therapeutic process to your specific needs, history, identities, and concerns. Together, we can find the tools and solutions that work for you.

What you can expect from our first session

You’ll leave my office with the tools & skills for applying for that job, having those uncomfortable conversations, and embracing your true self.
