Sometimes life is hard...and sometimes, the word “hard” doesn't begin to cover it.

You may feel stuck, overwhelmed, lost, or simply tired of feeling the way you do. Maybe you know that experiences from your past are still affecting you today, or you find yourself repeating patterns you understand but can't seem to change. Other times, you may not know exactly what's wrong...you just know that something isn't working anymore.

Over the years, I've helped adults heal unresolved wounds from childhood, develop greater self-awareness and self-esteem, improve relationships, and make life-enhancing changes that allow them to feel more connected to themselves and the lives they want to live. I work with people navigating trauma, anxiety, depression, grief, relationship difficulties, life transitions, and the everyday challenges that can leave us feeling overwhelmed.

I believe we all have the ability to grow and make meaningful changes in our lives. Sometimes we just need some help finding our strengths and figuring out what we need now.

Each of us has our own unique story and experiences. It's a privilege when someone chooses to share their story with me, and I'll meet you wherever you are in yours.


**Please note: I may have availability beyond what is currently shown on my calendar. Please don’t hesitate to reach out to me directly to schedule a consultation call: [email protected] :)

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.

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.

Therapist

Virtual & in-person • Burlington, VT


I became a therapist after working for 15 years in international development and humanitarian assistance. After doing my own therapeutic work, I learned that I might be more helpful as a therapist, focusing on individual lives, rather than on systems. Being a therapist matched my personality traits, especially related to empathy, and it felt like a good fit. During my graduate training, I had the opportunity to work with veterans, immigrants and refugees, and survivors of trauma. This experience showed me how therapy can help people feel better, heal, and recover no matter what happened in their lives. Over time, I've observed my clients feel more hopeful, relaxed, and at peace.

My communication style is empathetic and clear to create a supportive, non-judgmental environment. I listen deeply and will give you opportunities to reflect on your experiences with you as an empathetic partner. If you are nervous or working through something difficult, I will be receptive and calm.
