Great to meet you!

If you're carrying trauma that still shows up in your body or your relationships, or you're part of the LGBTQIA+ community and tired of starting over with a therapist who doesn't get it, you're in the right place. I work with the anxiety, depression, and substance use struggles that so often tangle up with that pain. As someone in the LGBTQIA+ community myself, I stay close to the real challenges our community faces, not just the textbook version.

My approach to therapy

I believe you know yourself better than anyone else, so we work as a team rather than me handing down answers. I'm trained in EMDR to help process past trauma, and when one strategy doesn't fit, we try another. There is always hope, and I don't give up on the people I work with.

What you can expect from me

Expect a judgment free zone from the first minute, one that's supportive, caring, and built on unconditional positive regard. We'll talk through what's bringing you in and start mapping out, together, what progress could look like for you.
