About My Clients

I find passion and purpose in helping young adults and adults who identify as neurodivergent and/or LGBTQIA+ heal and grow from trauma, depression, anxiety, and burnout. Many of the clients I work with are creatives and artists who are looking for more balance and integration in their lives.

My Background and Approach

Research tells us that the most important predictor of success in therapy is the relationship between client and therapist. With that in mind, I approach therapy as a collaboration between myself and my clients. We will first make sure we are the right fit, then slowly build safety and trust as we explore where you want to go with your healing. My approach is eclectic, meaning I have training and experience in several different styles of therapy including relational talk therapy, eye movement desensitization and reprocessing (EMDR), parts work/Internal Family Systems, and Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT).

My Personal Beliefs and Interests

I believe that we all have a clear, compassionate, and courageous inner Self. Navigating oppressive systems and personal challenges can create distance from the inner Self that leads to suffering. This is especially true if we hold marginalized or multiply marginalized identities. Through my own therapy and self-discovery, I have learned how to better serve my neurodivergent and LGBTQIA+ communities. I believe in laughter as medicine and bring a playful energy to therapy.
