My therapeutic style is warm and curious, with a side of dark humor and honest, witty realism. Rather than telling you what to do, I’m here to partner with you as you make sense of what’s happening and where you’d like to go next. You don’t have to prove anything to earn my kindness, and I invite you to bring your full, messy, complicated self into view.
I have a Bachelor of Science in Psychology and a Master of Arts in Mental Health and Rehabilitation Counseling from the University of Arizona. I work with individuals of all ages who want to work on their relationships with themselves by creating self empathy and understanding. I am also passionate about the work I go with members of the LGBTQ+ community, particularly trans MTF and non-binary folks.
In sessions, we look at your present behaviors, the strengths and the challenges, and I ask questions like: Where does this come from? How has this served you in the past? And, how does it serve you now? Answering these questions creates self-empathy and understanding (which I define as “space”), to be curious and explore without fear of what you’ll find. It’s not about overanalyzing or defining the “right” way to live. It’s about slowing down and connecting with what feels true. My clients choose me because I support their growth, offer new perspectives, and share practical tools when the moment is right. I feel incredibly lucky to do this work. I challenge perspectives while providing support in ways that leave you knowing yourself a bit better, every time.
