As American Author Christopher Paolini once wrote, “ It is impossible to go through life

unscathed."

Philosophy

People are all unique and their therapy should be the same. Whether you want to explore your gender identity, work on your anxiety or work through depression, we can tackle that together. Are you grieving a loss or struggling to overcome your past? My office is a safe space to process those events. I would love to be part of your journey and help you discover how to take life off hard mode and improve your mental health and wellbeing.

​

Approach

As a therapist, I am dedicated to using evidence-based strategies to help you discover what life can be like with better mental health. I use my background and experience with therapies like Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Dialectical Behavioral Therapy, Internal Family Systems, Gottman’s Couples Therapy and EMDR to help you discover what will work best for you. I also draw from my experience with LGBTQ+ and gender-diverse communities.

Why me?

​

I offer a safe, compassionate space for individuals and couples to explore, process and learn to cope with a variety of concerns including anxiety, depression, grief, PTSD, life transitions,

relationship issues and gender and identity exploration. Each person has a distinct story and I believe strongly in individualized, holistic treatment that is tailored to a person’s specific goals, context and needs. To achieve this I draw strongly on DBT, CBT and narrative therapy as my guiding modalities and work to incorporate leading psychological and neuroscience principles into my practice.
