I currently accept individual adult clients only through Headway. I do not provide couples or family therapy through this platform at this time.

I am a licensed Marriage and Family Therapist who works with individuals, couples, and LGBTQ+ clients seeking deeper self-understanding, emotional healing, and more connected relationships. My approach is warm, relational, trauma-informed, and grounded in the belief that healing happens through safety, honesty, and meaningful connection.

I specialize in relationship therapy, anxiety, depression, identity exploration, attachment wounds, complex trauma, and psychedelic assisted psychotherapy. I also support clients navigating life transitions, grief, shame, self-worth, communication challenges, and patterns that keep them feeling stuck or disconnected from themselves and others.

My work draws from Emotionally Focused Therapy, the Gottman Method, Internal Family Systems, somatic awareness, humanistic and existential therapy, and trauma-informed care. I help clients slow down, listen inward, understand their patterns, and develop more compassionate and empowered ways of relating.

As a queer-affirming therapist, I am especially passionate about supporting LGBTQ+ clients and relationships. I strive to create a space where clients can bring their full selves—without judgment—and explore healing in a way that honors their identities, histories, relationships, spirituality, and lived experience.

As a clinician, the most important thing I can give to my clients is trust. Trust that I can hold space for them while they do their work. Trust that I have taken care of myself so that they do not feel the need to take care of me during their healing process. Trust that I have done the work necessary to provide them with best practice, therapy techniques, models, and delivery of care.

Many people move through life feeling disconnected, overwhelmed, or unsure how to care for

themselves while caring for everyone else. You might be wondering why life doesn’t feel better

or why you keep putting your own needs last. These experiences are more common than most

people realize, and they can take a real toll on your mind and body.

As someone with lived experience, I understand how challenging it can be to navigate

relationships, identity, stress, and the expectations placed on us. My approach to therapy is

integrative and person‐centered, grounded in your needs, preferences, and cultural worldview. I

believe therapy should feel like a space where you can breathe, reflect, and reconnect with

yourself.

Whether online or in person, I work to create a supportive environment where you can explore

concerns related to relationships, gender, trauma, grief, identity, and life transitions. My goal is to

help you cultivate greater clarity, resilience, and overall wellness because living a better life

shouldn’t feel out of reach.

As a board certified psychotherapist, I believe prioritizing mental health is key to happiness and stability in life. Seeking help can be one of the hardest parts, so congratulations on taking that step! I’ve been practicing for 10 years, I work with a plethora of inter-generational clients aged 21-90 who are struggling with anxiety and depression and trauma.

As a chaplain, I take a psycho-spiritual approach and work with clients assisting with intercultural issues, blended family dynamics, religiosity challenges and grief & loss.
