"I believe meaningful change begins in safe, trusting, and supportive relationships. I offer a compassionate and nonjudgmental space where you can show up fully as yourself, honoring YOUR thoughts, emotions, identities, and experiences. As a queer therapist, I’m committed to creating an inclusive space for LGBTQIA+ and marginalized individuals. Feeling safe and affirmed in therapy matters, and I work to ensure every client feels accepted just as they are. 

I have worked with clients across the life-span, from children, to adolescents, to adults, supporting individuals experiencing anxiety, depression, trauma, and substance use.  My approach is trauma-informed, and tailored to your unique needs. Using evidence-based practices like DBT, CBT, and Motivational Interviewing, we’ll explore the connection between thoughts, emotions, and behaviors while building tools for coping, emotional regulation, and self-compassion. 

Therapy is a collaborative process and one that is shaped by your unique needs and goals. There is no one-size-fits-all approach, and I strive to meet you where you are with curiosity, flexibility, and respect. Together, we can create a space where your voice leads the way, where you feel heard and accepted, and where healing can take the form that feels most meaningful to you.

Above all, I see therapy as a space for authentic growth, empowerment, and connection, and I am honored to be a part of your journey."
