Great to meet you!

My work centers trauma-informed and neuro-affirming mental health care. I specialize in working with trauma, substance use, LGBTQ2SIA+, late-diagnosed Autism & ADHD, life transitions, grief, and anxiety. I believe that the client is the expert of their own experience and I prioritize collaboration in the therapeutic space. My practice is grounded in disability, racial, and social justice. I have over 15 years of experience working with folks facing increased challenges in navigating day-day life. I love supporting clients in achieving their goals and learning skills that fit with their specific needs!

My approach to therapy

I believe that no two individuals are alike and therapy should reflect that. I have an integrative approach that uses psychodynamic, strengths-based, and relational interventions. I have experience working with Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) as well as Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) to support individuals in achieving their goals.

What you can expect from me

I recognize that opening up to someone new can be vulnerable and often daunting. I approach therapy as a collaborative process and welcome your feedback. I offer free 15 minute phone consultations to all prospective clients so that we can connect before beginning our work.
