As human beings, we know life has a way of creating challenges we can find difficult to face on our own. I firmly believe each of us possess fundamental inner-strengths that can not only help us cope with these challenges, but flourish and thrive together. My goal as a therapist is to come alongside clients in a compassionate nonjudgmental stance to help identify your strengths and how to translate them into meaningful growth within yourself and in your relationships. I value using a mind/body approach and a warm, relational atmosphere in therapy. I am LGBTQIA+-affirming, trauma-informed, sex-positive, kink and poly-friendly.
My therapeutic approach is strengths-based, multicultural, and holistic in nature. I use evidence-based therapeutic modalities like ACT, DBT, SFBT, and somatic experiencing in an eclectic approach to help people manage a variety of mental health issues. My specialties include anxiety, sex therapy, career counseling, ADHD/neurodivergence, and women's issues.
I greatly value authenticity, compassion, warmth, humor, and accountability in the therapy room. I'm deeply interested in the benefits of art, nature, spirituality, and mindfulness on our collective mental health and am an avid reader, gamer, and gardener. I'd be happy to work with you on moving toward a more healthful, meaningful, and fulfilling life!
