Great to meet you!

If you are exploring identity, especially sexuality, gender, race, culture, or religion, I offer a space where your questions can be met with care, respect, and experience. You may be multiracial, from an interfaith family, part of more than one culture, or feel like you live in the both/and of belonging. Many people navigating this have also experienced trauma or concerns about substance use. I help you claim your identity while building skills to stay grounded, regulate emotions, and move through pain without disconnecting from yourself.

My approach to therapy

I am dedicated to providing you with evidence-based care, keeping up with the research on what works well for the issues you are struggling with. I have a background in neuropsychology, and philosophy. I am trained in EMDR and work especially with LGBTQ clients.

What you can expect from me

I am available for virtual sessions in California. If you would like to explore next steps, reach out for a free 15 minute consultation. Same day appointments are currently available. I am in network with United Healthcare, Optum and BCBS of MA. I will apply for out-of-network claims reimbursement on your behalf for PPOs.
