About My Clients

I work with adults who are feeling overwhelmed, uncertain, or quietly disconnected from themselves or their relationships. Many come to therapy during periods of transition, self-doubt, or emotional exhaustion, or with a sense that something feels off even if they can’t fully name it. My clients are often thoughtful and curious, looking for a supportive space to slow down, reflect, and better understand themselves.

My Background and Approach

Therapy doesn’t have to feel sterile or clinical - it can be human, honest, and real. I’m drawn to what lives beneath the surface: the patterns we repeat, the emotions we hide, and the stories we carry without always realizing it. I’m interested in the why beneath the what, and I believe understanding ourselves with honesty and compassion can change how we move through the world. I’m not a “perfectly put-together” therapist - I’m a real person. I value honesty, humor, vulnerability, and showing up as a human in the room. I don’t pretend to have all the answers, and I don’t expect you to either. What I offer is presence, curiosity, and a willingness to sit with what feels confusing, heavy, or unspoken. My approach is relational at its core. I show up grounded, warm, and fully present, and invite my clients to do the same. Working with me often feels like grabbing coffee with a friend - one who brings humor into the room and isn't afraid to lovingly call you out when needed,

My Personal Beliefs and Interests

I believe therapy should be a space where you feel safe, affirmed, and respected in all parts of who you are. I am LGBTQIA+ affirming, sex-positive, and kink-friendly, and I welcome clients of all gender identities, sexual orientations, relationship structures, and lived experiences. I value honesty, compassion, curiosity, and consent - both in and out of the therapy room. I believe in meeting people where they are, honoring their autonomy, and understanding individuals within the larger systems and cultures they move through. I am mindful of how power, privilege, identity, and social context shape our experiences and internal worlds. I strive to practice in ways that are inclusive, anti-oppressive, and culturally responsive. My commitment is to create a therapeutic space rooted in respect, openness, and care - where you don’t have to explain or defend who you are, and where your experiences are met with understanding and dignity.
