Too often we feel like we can't say everything we want to say, or that we said something wrong and there's no fixing it. In therapy, we can figure out what we want, what we want to say, and who we want to be. We can let it all out, make mistakes, and try again until it feels right. The freedom to speak honestly about all the parts of our experience is a key component to recovery. I am here to listen to you without judgment and to support you in understanding yourself, your relationships, your work, and your meaning. When you can coexist peacefully with all the parts of yourself, you may find your options opening up.
I am trained in EMDR and have experience with Mindfulness, CBT, TF-CBT, and TBRI, among others. I have worked with people experiencing trauma, domestic violence, anxiety, depression, substance abuse, grief, relationship struggles, and big life changes. I provide in-person as well as telehealth counseling, and have worked with children, teens and adults.
Being a member of the LGBTQ+ community is a hard-won point of pride. I am attuned to the unique and beautiful perspective we bring to the world as well as the isolation and marginalization that many of us endure. Radical self-acceptance is a key phrase in building the safe haven of ourselves. I look forward to meeting you and hearing your story.

Using a person-centered approach, I find that most issues can be addressed in session. I don't shy away from trauma, abuse, or the effects of depression, anxiety and insomnia. Self-esteem is always a foundational component to healing, and I especially keep that in mind with my LGBTQ clients.
