My ideal client will be treated as an individual, acknowledging that your learning and healing process is unique. Our goals will be to make sense of your issues once we put all the pieces together. I am to work alongside you as an ally in your healing process, align with your needs, challenge you towards growth, and support your independence and openness. I hope to offer you some relief as soon as possible, so be ready to work, and have your sense of humor ready too!
Whether you are struggling in your important relationships, trying to cope with the impact of past trauma, or exploring questions of meaning and identity, searching for a therapist is a courageous first step toward building the life you've been wishing for. I offer a place to explore your questions, hopes, struggles, and joys in the context of a safe, connected relationship free of judgment. I invest my time outside of sessions in training and research to ensure I am offering you what works.
I have experience working with adults, teens, and children to process a variety of areas such as trauma, anxiety, depression, autism, attachment complications, LGBTQ+ related struggles, managing anger, parenting difficulties, and more. In my work with individuals, kids, and families we imagine how life can be different and collaboratively explore how to move forward. I believe in the power of encouragement and the importance of truth.
I help clients truly heal from life or marital crisis, overwhelming sadness, generational trauma, panic attacks, self-defeating thoughts, intimacy issues, anxiety, stress, anger and grief. My expertise is in emotional release therapy and mindfulness-based cognitive therapy, clinically supporting and empowering you to finally release the painful emotions and agonizing thoughts that have been consuming your mind.
Being human is often tough. Sometimes we lose our way and can feel stuck and overwhelmed. Sometimes we would like to change parts of our lives or ourselves but don’t know how. Therapy can be an empowering way to promote healing, growth, and wellness. Often, we initially seek treatment to address a specific concern and then begin to uncover other areas of our lives in which we want to make meaningful change. My goal is for this process to feel supportive, affirming, and appropriately challenging.

I specialize in treating mature teens and adults with OCD and other anxiety-related issues. I work with parents of anxious children to help them learn how to support their kids and reduce their anxiety, as well as work with parents struggling with adult children who have become dependent (failure to launch). I also have extensive training and experience in Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT).
If you struggle with self-doubt, self-criticism, poor body image, low motivation, excess anxiety, obsessive or intrusive thoughts, never feel good enough, or always put your needs last, go ahead and give me a call. I believe you have everything you need already inside of you to create the life of your dreams. I will help you unlock the fullness of this inner power. I’ll provide a casual, compassionate, non-judgmental space for you to do the profound work of healing.
I offer telehealth counseling services to diverse client populations experiencing a host of challenges. One of the primary populations I treat is young adults experiencing difficulty with major life transitions, relationships, and future-planning concerns. Additionally, I have enjoyed my work treating couples, especially those with a history of substance abuse in one or more partners. I'm proud to offer an inclusive space for clients regardless of identity or background.
You’ve gone to therapy before, but nothing seems to stick. The things you’ve always done to cope aren’t working, but you can’t break free from those patterns no matter how hard you try. You have a hard time setting boundaries, advocating for yourself, and making the changes you want. You’re having memory issues and shutting down. You feel helpless, broken, and unacceptable. Your inner critic is loud and tough. You’re on edge all the time and exhausted. It's like you've been shattered to pieces.

Do you feel stuck? Disconnected from yourself and everyone around you? Hiding from everything because it feels too exhausting to do anything more than basic functioning? Are you taking care of everyone else and neglecting yourself? Do you worry about EVERYTHING and question every choice you make or thought you have? Do you feel overwhelmed, wondering if you’re good enough, or if you’ll finally be seen and accepted for who you are? I see you. You are not alone.
While I provide therapy to people from all walks of life, the goals I collaborate in developing with clients are mainly focused on: LGBTQ+ and their families, gender identity following the WPATH Standards of Care, grief and loss, relationship issues, sexuality, trauma, depression, anxiety, life transitions, addictions, HIV/AIDS, and spirituality. I work with adults, teens, couples, and families, including monogamous and polyamorous relationships, and alternative sexualities.
I sincerely believe that everyone’s spirituality, race, culture, gender, and sexual orientation must be valued because all remain as vital components that compose who we are. I am dedicated to helping members of the LGBTQ community who struggle with depression, anxiety, coming out, life transitions, HIV diagnosis, relationships, and social factors. I have also dedicated my life to helping those who suffer from addiction issues, including alcohol, drugs, sex, and gambling.
You might be struggling with something concrete—a challenge in your relationships or a professional hurdle. You might be facing a big decision. Or you simply might know something feels off but are unable to place a finger on what is going on. No matter the issue, I am here to walk you through the process.
Most of my work focuses on working with folks in the LGBTQIA spectrum to heal trauma, improve relationships, explore sex and develop a sense of wellbeing. During our initial sessions we will explore your life, your issues, and your goals to build a collaborative way forward. Throughout our work we will look to build insight and shine a light on all of the pieces that make you, you.

Life is tough and so are you. Maybe therapy seems like something you don't "need," but you want to move from surviving to thriving and know something needs to change. You want to feel better and get some relief but are not sure how to get there. Whether this is your first-time seeking therapy, or you have been before, it can be overwhelming to share your story with a new person. I offer a free 15-minute phone consultation so we can get to know each other and see if I am a good fit.
I have worked with an array of concerns including depression, anxiety, multicultural issues, trauma, life transitions/stressors and LGBTQ+ related issues. As a multicultural counselor, I know that your story and identities have a huge role in how you navigate the world. If you are looking for some help heading in the right direction, then I can offer support.
Do you struggle with your sexual or gender identity? Do you find yourself searching for things outside yourself to fill the void? Sometimes this is food, alcohol, other addictive behaviors...Do you feel anxious or depressed for seemingly no reason? Do you feel like you are working hard just to survive and want so much to thrive yet aren't sure how to do that? With a little help, you can live your life free of past trauma, free of unhealthy habits while embracing your true self completely!
