Message to clients

If you're struggling with anxiety, depression, relationship challenges, identity exploration, trauma, or substance use, I can help. I specialize in creating a safe, nonjudgmental space where you can explore these challenges and work towards healing and growth. My practice is deeply rooted in the understanding that each person's journey is unique. Whether you're dealing with specific issues or seeking a space for personal reflection, I tailor my therapeutic approach to meet your individual needs. I offer inclusive and sensitive care, drawing from my extensive experience working with the LGBTQ community, those experiencing substance use challenges, or folks wanting to change their relationship to sex. I believe that the relationship you and I create together can be used as a tool to help you heal. That means I do more in our sessions than listen and nod. I show up as myself, reflecting with you, asking you questions, and helping you process emotions in a safe supported way. When you work with me, you can count on me showing up with curiosity, care, and a genuine desire to help you reach your highest potential. Let's start your journey together!
