I am an honest and compassionate therapist with a direct approach to therapy. I believe therapy works best when communication is open, clear, and collaborative. I encourage curiosity, openness, and personal growth, and I aim to empower clients to take an active role in their healing and decision-making process.

I work with adults who are navigating loss, life, transitions, and moments, when things no longer feel stable or familiar. Many of my clients are high functioning, thoughtful people who are used to caring for others, holding things together, or pushing through – until something shifts and the usual strategies stop working.

My approach is relational, trauma informed, and grounded in compassion. I believe therapy works best when you feel genuinely seen, respected, and understood. Sessions are collaborative and paste with care, balancing emotional exploration with practical tools to help you, cope, regain clarity, and move forward with intention.

With the background of medical social work, I have extensive experience supporting individuals, facing illness, grief, caregiver stress, and major life changes. I also work with anxiety, depression, relationship, concerns, and the emotional impact of long-term stress or unresolved trauma. I pay close attention to the nervous system, attachment patterns, and the way past experience, the shape present reactions – while staying focused on what feels important to you right now.

Client often describe me a steady, intuitive, and thoughtful. I aim to create a space that feels safe, grounded, and nonjudgmental – where you don’t have to perform, explain everything perfectly, or have it all figured out. Whether you are feeling overwhelmed, stuck, or simply ready to understand yourself more deeply, therapy can be a pace to slow down, reconnect with yourself, and begin making meaningful change.

Finding a therapist who truly gets your life can feel like a long search. One who sees more than a diagnosis, who doesn't need you to explain yourself before you can get to work. If you're part of the LGBTQ+ community, that search often comes with an extra layer: the quiet work of figuring out whether this therapist is actually safe, or whether you'll spend your sessions educating them. With me, you won't have to do that work.

I'm a licensed therapist with more than 22 years of experience in mental health and addiction treatment. I've worked in community mental health centers, psychiatric hospitals, correctional settings, and private practice. I've sat with people in some of the hardest moments of their lives and know how to meet them there without flinching.

My primary focus is LGBTQ+ individuals and couples. That includes navigating identity, coming out at any stage of life, relationship dynamics unique to queer and same-sex partnerships, internalized stigma, minority stress, and everything that comes with living authentically in a world that doesn't always make that easy. I also work with anxiety, depression, trauma and PTSD, substance use and dual diagnosis, men's issues, and stress and burnout.

Personally and professionally, I pride myself on my rapport with everyone that I encounter. I have genuine and unconditional respect and patience for others. I remain objective and non-judgmental, while still developing close working relationships that are productive and challenging. I specialize in improving thoughts, emotions, behaviors, and outcomes.

I enjoy working in music production, and share music therapy exercises often. I look forward to delving into any interests that you are looking to pursue.
