my approach:

No two therapies are the same! I cater my approach and techniques to work with each client’s unique goals and interests. I see therapy as relational and conversational at its core, to build trust and help us bring all parts of ourselves into the room when we’re ready. My work incorporates aspects of Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Relational Therapy, Narrative Therapy, Psychodynamic Therapy, Internal Family Systems, and Dialectical Behavioral Therapy. My work is trauma informed, anti-racist, kink affirming, and Poly/ENM affirming.

thoughts for new clients:

Honesty and trust are gifts that you give when you are ready, never things that I expect or demand.

ABOUT ME:

I am someone who truly loves learning about others, including their experiences, interests, and goals. Following that, I believe that we thrive from simply being seen, heard, and accepted for who we are, where we came from, and where we’re going. Therapy does not need to feel complicated.I entered this field because of my own experiences in therapy. I was lucky enough to connect with a queer therapist, who inspired me to help others how I was helped. As a queer therapist I have since worked with other queer, kinky, and poly folx navigating areas including anxiety, depression, life transitions, neurodiversity, relationships, stress, trauma, substance use, OCD, and more. When I’m not at the office, I spend my time involved in music, riding my bike, playing video games, improving my cooking, and relaxing with friends and my cats!
