Great to meet you!

I am a queer and neurodivergent therapist whose practice is rooted in an anti-racist, liberation framework. I believe that healing happens in the context of safe, authentic relationships and I’m dedicated to providing that space for my clients.

My approach to therapy

My approach to therapy is strength-based, starting by strengthening the coping skills, resources, and resiliency you already have. It is also collaborative. You and I will work together to personalize a therapeutic approach and craft the tools you need to create an authentic and fulfilled life. I utilize evidence-based modalities such as Dialectical Behavioral Therapy (DBT), Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), Parts Work, and Mindfulness Based Cognitive Therapy (MBCT). I believe that art and other creative therapies can help us heal in ways that words sometimes can’t. My office is a place of unconditional acceptance, restorative humor, and crayons within reach at all times.

What you can expect from me

I provide individual therapy for adults and teens ages 15 and over. I also offer surgical evaluations & support letters for gender-affirming procedures. I welcome younger clients (ages 8+) who are seeking therapy specifically related to autism, ADHD, or LGBTQ+ care.
