About My Clients

*As of 3/28/2021, I am not able to accept new clients at this time* I treat all age groups except kiddos younger than five years of age. I have an eclectic counseling style, influenced by several respected theories. School aged children, adolescents, young adults, young professionals, and parents are a particularly good fit for me, but I enjoy working with a wide variety of folks. My style is especially suited for those who need a safe place to develop insight and heal.

My Background and Approach

I offer individual and couples/relationship counseling and am honored to share in the journeys of all who entrust me. I provide LGBTQ+ affirming therapy, referral letters, and support through medical and social transitions for transgender/gender diverse folx. I also work with addictions, anxiety, depression, trauma, professional burnout or workplace stress, parenting, and other wellness related concerns. I pull from my education and training in gender and sexual diversity, CBT, person centered counseling, addictions counseling, mindfulness, positive psychology, EMDR, motivational interviewing, and the Gottman Method. My office is a safe place for all. Aside from theoretical viewpoints and clinical techniques, the core of my therapeutic approach is built upon: unconditional positive regard, collaboration, trust, compassion, empathy, and empowerment.
