About My Clients

From anxiety and trauma to sexuality and identity, each of us grapples with our own unique concerns. If you’ve ever felt hesitant or unsure about discussing topics that many consider unconventional or taboo, know that you’ve found a welcoming space here. I specialize in supporting individuals and couples, as well as those exploring polyamorous relationships. I am also a strong advocate (and a part of) the LGBTQIA+ community. I’m continuously updating my knowledge to stay informed.

My Background and Approach

My approach begins by seeing and acknowledging you, by using person-centered, Cognitive Behavioral, and Dialectical Behavioral techniques, I aim to create an environment tailored to your specific needs. Whether you’re confronting anxiety, trauma, questions about sex, or other intimate concerns, I’m here to help you map out a plan that meets your goals.

My Personal Beliefs and Interests

I am a firm believer in reflection and growth. I’m so passionate about these fundamental elements of mental health that I left an established career path to pursue my passion for therapy. I would be honored to work with you to identify, understand, and potentially meet your goals and needs. If you are not sure what those are, that is also okay! We can figure out your goals along the way. I believe that a collaborative relationship between a client and therapist is essential in navigating goals, and facilitating personal growth. While my first goal is to be supportive and listen, I will also provide the accountability and encouragement for you to construct your best life.
