Get to know me

In our first session together, here's what you can expect

Our first session is all about creating a comfortable, safe space where you can share at your own pace. We'll discuss what brings you to therapy, what you hope to gain from it, and any concerns or questions you might have. I’ll also ask about your experiences, identity, and interests to better understand how I can support you. Most importantly, this is a time for you to get a sense of whether I’m the right fit for you—no pressure, just a conversation to start building trust and connection.

The biggest strengths that I bring into our sessions

One of my greatest strengths is my ability to create a warm, understanding, and judgment-free space where clients feel truly seen. Because I share many of the identities and experiences of the communities I serve, I deeply understand the challenges of feeling unheard or isolated. My approach is rooted in empathy, collaboration, and genuine care, helping clients feel safe enough to explore their identities, values, and goals. I also bring a unique perspective on finding community—both online and offline—and support clients in discovering connections that affirm and empower them.

The clients I'm best positioned to serve

I work best with individuals who feel misunderstood or struggle to find a space where they truly belong. This includes gamers, geeks, and members of the LGBTQIA+ community who may have experienced isolation, discrimination, or difficulty reconciling different aspects of their identity. I also support those who are navigating faith and identity, processing past traumas, or seeking self-acceptance. My approach is especially beneficial for those who value a compassionate, identity-affirming, and community-centered therapeutic experience.
