Great to meet you!

I'm a queer therapist committed to providing compassionate, trauma-informed therapy to individuals over the age of 22 navigating complex trauma, anxiety, and relationship challenges. I am also deeply passionate about social justice and political advocacy. I recognize that systemic issues can significantly impact mental health and I integrate this awareness into our work together. I am, more than anything, a relational therapist: I bring humor, real-life examples, and genuine reactions into the room to build a collaborative, authentic, and safe therapeutic relationship.

My approach to therapy

My approach is rooted in a trauma lens. I combine evidence-based therapeutic modalities, such as CBT, IPT, and Somatic Therapy, tailored to your needs and experiences. I believe that healing happens within the context of a strong and trusting connection where we can explore your experiences, emotions, and goals together. I strive to create an environment where you can feel heard, validated, and empowered to reclaim your sense of self and agency.

What you can expect from me

Our first few sessions will be focused on getting to know you as a whole person. We will discuss the issues that brought you to therapy as well as who you are outside of any symptoms or difficulties you are experiencing. I am here to walk alongside you on your journey toward healing. Together, we can work to unpack the layers of your experiences, build resilience, and help you move toward a more fulfilling life.
