Great to meet you!

Hi! I specialize in working with queer individuals and relationships. I offer an affirming and supportive space where clients can explore connection, identity, intimacy and growth. I believe that meaningful and healthy relationships are built through authenticity, communication, and self-understanding, and I strive to help clients navigate challenges with compassion and curiosity.

My approach to therapy

I prefer to take the time to get to know clients well and tailor approaches to your unique needs. I have extensive post-graduate training in relationships/couples counseling, sex therapy and treating sex-related concerns, as well as treating trauma. My clinical focus is primarily queer clients and women/female presenting persons.

What you can expect from me

The therapist-client relationship is the most important factor in counseling. I like to spend the first session getting to know new clients, answering any questions you might have, and finding out what you would most like to get out of counseling.
