Great to meet you!

Are you navigating a life transition or healing from trauma? Do you want to strengthen a relationship, explore ethical non-monogamy, find or re-kindle your passion, process infidelity, or gain a deeper understanding of yourself? I’m here to help you find clarity and healing. Together, we’ll develop tools to address anxiety, depression, grief, and life stress. With extensive experience in the LGBTQ+ community, I support you, no matter how you find meaning, or define love and family.

My approach to therapy

I take a humanistic approach to your challenges, working collaboratively to strengthen relationships and foster understanding. Your journey is unique, and I tailor my methods to meet your needs. By integrating tools from therapeutic modalities (CBT, ACT, EFT, DBT, Psychodynamic) I create personalized treatments that promote healing, acceptance, and growth.

What you can expect from me

Life can be overwhelming, especially when the people, relationships, and circumstances that support us, change. If you're feeling lost or uncertain how to find meaning, open your heart to love, or heal, know that you're not alone—I’m here to help. Together, we can create a safe space for your personal growth and exploration. Lets talk.
