I am a trans and queer therapist who is passionate about creating an open, healing space for clients to share their own unique story, learn more about their minds, and face life's challenges with new confidence. I have 3 years of practice history with a wide range of ages, identities, and diagnoses. I work with clients presenting with any combination of anxiety, depression, grief, bipolar disorder(s), ADHD, autism, and more. Much of my work aims to create space and safety for my LGBTQIA+ clients explore gender and sexuality as it pertains to their own identity as well as processing the lived and social experience of queerness.
My biggest goal is always to find a way to make therapy work for you. I believe in the power of storytelling as a way to organize our thoughts and experiences into shapes we can better understand. I enjoy helping my clients learn more about their brain and why it does the things it does— especially its habits that frustrate us the most!
Therapy is a love you send to future you. The sooner you reach out, the sooner they can receive your care and healing. I am eager to see clients from all corners of our community. If my services/schedule aren't sounding like right fit, I'd hate to leave you with a dead end, so I'd be happy to connect you to one of my beloved fellow Ellie clinicians. :)
