From a young age, I always had a passion for helping and supporting others. No matter your struggle, I see the human being in front of me, not a label or diagnosis. My vision for our work together is tailored to you and concentrates on your unique, individual needs. My office is a judgment-free zone, so let’s roll up our sleeves and finally talk about the things you've been carrying in silence. I not only accept all, I embrace all. I can’t wait to get started with you! My clinical background centers around the most common mental health concerns you might be facing, such as anxiety, depression, low self-esteem, problems with effective communication, life transitions, anger management, parenting support, body image, gender identity, and support around coping skills. My therapeutic approach values solution-focused care, challenging your beliefs and way of thinking while building a warm and safe space through humor, collaboration, empowerment, and rapport. I also specialize in sex and relationship therapy for individuals. Having seen the impact of stress on sexual minorities, I know firsthand the importance of finding a therapist who embraces the complexities of sexuality and diverse relationship styles. The most common sex therapy concerns I treat that folx bring in are gaps in desire, sexual functioning issues, sexual behavior that feels out of control (commonly referred to as “sex addiction” or “porn addiction”), and many more. No power dynamic, fetish, kink, fantasy, behavior, or desire is too much for us to discuss together. I am also proud to be an ally to the LGBTQIA+ community, as well as the sex worker community.

Because no two people are alike, the direction of our work is always shaped by your unique needs, goals, and life experiences. My path to becoming a therapist began in healthcare, where I spent years supporting patients and striving to bring compassion to people who were struggling. The COVID-19 pandemic in 2020 was a turning point. I witnessed firsthand the emotional toll that stress, grief, burnout, and uncertainty placed on so many people, particularly those working in healthcare alongside me. That experience clarified what I was called to do. I returned to school, pursued licensure as a professional counselor, and deepened my commitment to the kind of trauma-informed, compassionate care that helps people feel truly supported and never alone in what they're facing. Now, I am proud to bring empathy, authenticity, and genuine investment to every session. Outside of the therapy room, I find grounding in the simple things: reading, writing fiction, spending time with family, and being outdoors. These moments of connection and creativity remind me of what matters most, and they inform the presence and care I bring to my work with patients.
