I really believe people grow best when we build a real, collaborative relationship together. As a queer and neurodivergent therapist, I value authenticity, inclusivity, and creating a space where people from diverse backgrounds feel understood and supported. If you’re dealing with depression, anxiety, or going through a tough life transition, you don’t have to handle it alone. I’m here to support you. We’ll work through it together, focus on what matters most to you, and build a path forward that helps you feel more steady and in control.

If you're carrying anxiety that won't quiet down, grief that feels impossible to move through, or a weight that makes everyday life feel harder than it should, you're in the right place. I work with adults and people across all stages of life who are ready to feel more like themselves again. My approach is grounded in warmth and a deep belief that you are the expert on your own life. There's no judgment here, only a supportive space where you can say what you've been holding back.
