“What is to give light must endure burning.” Maybe you've been carrying a lot for a long time. Anxiety, stress, loss, or the constant pressure to keep it together can leave you feeling disconnected from yourself. Sometimes, you just need somewhere to put it all down. I offer space where you can speak honestly, feel understood, and work through what's been weighing you down. My approach is genuine, collaborative, somewhat funny, and sometimes direct. We'll make sense of what you've been through, challenge the patterns keeping you stuck, and move forward.

Great to meet you!

Therapy should be a place where you don't have to censor yourself or worry about being judged. I work with adults navigating anxiety, trauma, relationship difficulties, intimacy and sexual concerns, identity, self-esteem, and major life transitions. My approach is warm, affirming, sex-positive, LGBTQIA+ affirming, and grounded in the belief that therapy should feel collaborative rather than clinical or intimidating. I especially enjoy helping clients better understand themselves, recognize patterns that are no longer serving them, strengthen relationships, and create meaningful change in their lives.
