I offer a warm, affirming, and nonjudgmental space for clients to show up as their full, authentic selves. As a queer person, I’m especially passionate about working with LGBTQ+ and gender-expansive individuals, as well as those exploring their sexuality or navigating open and non-monogamous relationships. I have experience working with adolescents, adults, couples, and families on issues such as anxiety, depression, trauma, identity, life transitions, body image, self-esteem, and relationship dynamics. My integrative, trauma-informed approach draws from psychodynamic and multicultural frameworks, always considering the cultural and systemic influences that shape my clients’ lives. My own healing journey in therapy inspires the care, connection, and safety I aim to bring to each session.
