Great to meet you!

Finding a therapist who truly understands your experiences can be life-changing. I specialize in working with LGBTQIA+ adults navigating trauma, climate anxiety, and identity exploration. Whether you're working through past trauma, feeling overwhelmed by the climate crisis, or simply want a safe, affirming space where you can show up as yourself without wondering if your therapist “gets it," I'm here to support you.

Learn more about me and my practice, Nurtured Nature Counseling, at nurturednaturecounseling.com.

My approach to therapy

My approach blends lived experience with evidence-based practices like EMDR and person-centered talk therapy. Together, we'll create a space where you can heal and grow in a way that feels authentic to you. I am committed to providing an environment where your identity is not just accepted, but celebrated.

What you can expect from me

As a queer, climate-aware therapist, I understand how systemic issues like climate change and social injustice impact mental health. I believe healing is both an individual journey and a process of collective empowerment. My goal is not just for you to survive, but to thrive. During our first session you’ll sign into our virtual appointment from the comfort of your own home. Four legged friends are definitely welcome (and encouraged) here. Feel free to come as you are, and I’ll do the same.
