About

I became a therapist because I have seen first person the great impact that counseling can have for people from all walks of life. I believe that emotional healing and mental health can trickle down into all areas of our lives, which means that I truly prioritize my time with clients and what it means to us both. I enjoy getting to listen and understand my clients’ worlds as we work together. As a therapist, I acknowledge the power that I hold in my position and try to do what I can to use my position to empower everyone that I work with.

I have experience working with individual adults and partnerships in areas such as anxiety, depression, sex & intimate wellness, relationship conflict, sexual assault, life transitions, and self esteem. One of my primary areas of expertise is working with members of the LGBTQ+ community in areas of positive sexual and/ or gender identity, coming out, transitioning, and sexual health. However, I work with people of all identities and backgrounds. I foster a therapeutic space that is identity-affirming, sex-positive, and polyamorous- and kink-affirming. I am currently open to working with adults seeking individual or relationship counseling.

In our work together, I see my clients just as much as experts as I am, and I know that each client is coming in with their own unique strengths, even if they are not yet aware of them. I work primarily from an existential-humanistic lens where my clients and I work together to increase understanding and form meaning to the client’s feelings, strengths, and challenges. I also incorporate elements of Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), Gottman Therapy, and Feminist Therapy into my practice often. I prioritize multicultural competency and diversity in my work and often encourage my clients to reflect on their own intersecting identities and cultural backgrounds.
