Great to meet you!

Do you feel stuck, trapped, or like you are in a constant battle with yourself or your day-to-day life? My goal is to help guide my clients toward more fulfilling and authentic lives unclouded by insecurities and past traumas. I provide clients with an open-minded space in which they can explore their true selves and facilitate changes which last a lifetime. My approach to therapy is eclectic, taking pieces of behavioral, psychoanalytic, interpersonal and EMDR modalities to tailor treatment for each individual who I counsel. I serve teen and adult clients to address anxiety, trauma, identity, gender dysphoria, relationship issues and life transitions. I have around 5 years of experience in serving LGBTQ+ clients along with serving those of all backgrounds presenting with relationship issues. As a non-binary individual myself, I believe I am well-equipped in serving those who have long felt misunderstood.

My approach to therapy

Through behavioral, psychoanalytic, interpersonal, and EMDR approaches I help my clients to overcome significant challenges and barriers in their lives to foster greater fulfillment and authenticity for individuals from all walks of life.

What you can expect from me

I always encourage my clients to focus on at least one change they can start working toward in their personal life prior to the end of a first session, regardless of how big or small this change might be. I also hope to get to know my clients on a personal level, understanding who they are as people in order to increase comfortability during the frist session and more so over time.
