Great to meet you!

My specialty is working with adults or adolescents who have experienced relational and/or sexual trauma. I see individuals as well as a variety of other relationship dynamics. It is my desire as your therapist to help you heal from your trauma in order to have more satisfying and deeper relationships with yourself, others, and the world around you.

My approach to therapy

I believe we all have an inner knowing inside of us that can help us along our life path. My therapeutic approach is to help individuals follow this inner wisdom to a more fulfilling future. Therapy is a safe space to examine harmful intergenerational patterns and begin the process of change into a lighter future. I also enjoy working with individuals who identify as creatives and those who are interested in cultivating their creativity in their daily life.

What you can expect from me

As a queer therapist, I understand the importance of feeling accepted and celebrated for who you are in the therapeutic process. I am passionate about working with individuals who identify as LGBTQ+ and clients who actively identify with or are exploring non-monogamous relationships (open, swinging, polyamory etc.) and kink/BDSM.
