Great to meet you!

I've been a therapist dedicated to supporting diverse communities for over a decade. My firsthand experience with the foster care system, along with my own identity as a member of the LGBTQ+ community, shapes my approach to therapy. I understand the unique challenges of navigating different cultures, family structures, and personal identities.

I bring a lot of humor into my sessions because sometimes you need to laugh at the dark to remove its power.

My approach to therapy

My approach to therapy is collaborative with the client. I like to have an open dialogue and ensure people are comfortable sharing their authentic selves. I want to be approachable instead of an expert in pronouncing theory. I try to focus on the future and how a client can make changes and choices that improve their life, as well as focusing on the thoughts and behaviors that may have influenced their choices in life.

What you can expect from me

I hope to provide authentic change for clients and allow them to learn tools to help themselves instead of very long stretches of therapy. Hopefully, with a laugh, a smile, and a different perspective on life
