About My Clients

Feeling misunderstood, self-conscious, or pressured to mask your true self takes a toll. I am passionate about working with LGBTQIA2S+ and neurodivergent populations facing various mental health challenges. My office is a space where you can be your full, authentic self–no explanation necessary. In a world where marginalized folx are often pushed aside, my practice brings you back to center stage, where you belong.

My Background and Approach

My approach to therapy is deeply human and down-to-earth. I’ll meet you where you’re at, working alongside you to create an individualized therapy experience that meets your needs. I draw from various therapeutic modalities to provide meaningful tools catered specifically to you; your strengths, your experiences, and your goals.

My Personal Beliefs and Interests

My practice is grounded in neurodivergent-affirming, LGBTQIA2S+-affirming, anti-racist frameworks.
