Healing isn't about forgetting the past. It's about changing the way it affects your present. Whether you're working through anxiety, depression, trauma, eating disorder recovery, or difficult life transitions, therapy can help you better understand the patterns that have been keeping you stuck while creating healthier ways to move forward.

With nearly a decade of experience working with adults, I provide a warm, collaborative, and supportive space where you can feel understood without judgment. My goal is to help you make sense of what's contributing to your current challenges, build on your existing strengths, and develop practical tools that support meaningful, lasting change. Whether you're navigating anxiety, stress, trauma, eating disorders, grief, ADHD, or relationship concerns, we'll work together to help you feel more grounded, confident, and connected to yourself.

Sometimes you know something in your life isn’t working, but you’re not quite sure how to change it. Maybe you’re overwhelmed, stuck in the same relationship patterns, struggling with anxiety, or realizing that experiences from your past are still showing up in your life today. I believe our patterns often make sense when we understand where they came from. Together, we can get curious about what’s underneath the anxiety, reactions, or behaviors that are keeping you stuck, while also building practical tools to help you move forward.

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.
