Great to meet you!

Maya Angelou said, "There is no greater agony than bearing an untold story inside you." I believe each of our life's story matters. Perhaps in this chapter you're encountering low self-esteem, anxiety & depression or relationship concerns. You may be looking to heal from past trauma, or needing a place to ventilate overwhelm. I can help with that. I'll meet you where you're at and help you build a sense of agency for the change you'd like to author in your life. I'm not an 'Oz behind a curtain' type therapist but more of a fellow traveler, drawing from both lived experience and professional training to guide and empower. I am a queer therapist and I'm passionate about helping others in the LGBTQIA2+ community find affirmation, confidence and agency.

My approach to therapy

Over eight years of practice as a trauma and EFT therapist in Chicago, I developed a personal approach that addresses mind, body and soul. I've utilized a behavioral approach (DBT) to help build concrete skills. I offer EMDR to address trauma. Depending on your preference, I can provide homework, reading recommendations, and guided meditation practice. Above all, I hold a warm, safe space where you can unpack with a trusted and experienced professional.

What you can expect from me

In our sessions you can expect an authentic, down-to-earth connection via telehealth. Together we will build a relationship that fosters the safety needed for healing. You can count on me to share wisdom and helpful resources, provide validation and support, offer constructive challenges where needed, and remain actively engaged and attentive throughout our time together. Let's make your story one you're proud to tell, reach out and schedule your free consultation.
