About My Clients

Have you found yourself struggling with overwhelming Depression, and because you identify as LGBTQ it seems hard to find a therapist who you can relate to and actually feel comfortable talking to? Individuals tend to seek therapy for depression when they have exhausted their resources and ability to cope. Whether you’re struggling in your relationships, feeling stressed about family life, experiencing mood swing sand intrusive thoughts or feeling like giving up, Consider booking a session today!

My Background and Approach

With over 9 years of experience I’ve developed an expertise in helping gay, lesbian, bisexual and transgender indiviuals. I offer effective ways to help improve motivation, lessen feelings of sadness and reduce depressive thoughts. I help individuals who have low self-esteem, anxiety and bipolar disorder, with what seems and feels like never ending problems. I used evidenced based approaches including CBT, Person Centered Therapy and Solution Focused techniques to treat : Depression, Anxiety, Bipolar Disorder; Relationship Concerns, Family Conflicts and Faith Based Concerns. I look forward to connecting with you and discussing some of the ways that I can help! Please contact me so that we can schedule a free 10 minute call to discuss your needs.

My Personal Beliefs and Interests

As a member of the LGBTQ+ community, my passion is to provide mental health services to other members of our community to ensure they get the support that they need. As a group, we are often marginalized and stigmatized because of our lifestyles, which has often made it difficult for us to find providers who can support us without being critical or judgmental of who we are. I believe that everyone deserves equality despite their gender, sexual identity race or ideals.
