Great to meet you!

Before becoming a therapist, I was a social worker for twenty years, working in the fields of child abuse, adoptions, and inpatient psychiatric/acute medical care. Crisis intervention, trauma and abuse have become my strong suits with experience. As a therapist, I am equipped to help you with topics that can be hard to talk about, such as trauma history, child abuse, suicidal thoughts, shame, relationship struggles, sexual health / sexual identity concerns. ENM/Poly and kink affirming.

My approach to therapy

My clients often report liking my warm style and open minded approach. I am told that I am empowering and direct, yet inquisitive and respectful. Therapy is not a "one size fits all" relationship, and I tailor my interventions to fit your needs.

What you can expect from me

You can expect to feel heard and seen when working with me, and to be given real-time tools to address your symptoms and foster growth. I give homework, and am invested in your healing and progress.
