For over a decade, I've been a therapist dedicated to supporting diverse communities. My firsthand experience with the foster care system, along with my own identity as a member of the LGBTQ+ community, shapes my approach to therapy. I understand the unique challenges that come from navigating different cultures, family structures, and personal identities. In my sessions, expect a touch of... quirkiness. I bring a lot of humor into my sessions because sometimes you need to be able to laugh at the dark.

What can clients expect to take away from sessions with you?

In our first session, we'll take some time to get to know each other and build a comfortable rapport. This will involve exploring your background and history, answering any questions you have about therapy and what it entails, and most importantly, setting some goals we can work towards together in our future sessions

Explain to clients what areas you feel are your biggest strengths.

My strength as a provider seems to be being able to approach people's issues from a different angle. I've had a lot of odd life experiences myself and a lot of twists and turns and sharing the knowledge and adaptability with clients tends to be very helpful. I'm also very accepting of a wide range of people. My general philosophy in life is as long as you're not harming someone else let your freak flag fly.

My treatment methods

Cognitive Behavioral (CBT)

CBT is good for reframing thoughts and learned behaviors that are no longer helpful for a client

Feminist

It's important for women to be able to take back for themselves, and men to learn that doesn't mean it's a threat to their masculinity.

Couples Counseling

I have worked with many couples, with many different dynamics, from the vanilla to the kink, from the LGBTQ community and hetero, from the monogamous and poly

Motivational Interviewing

Motivational interviewing is a good way to examine what motivates a person and what changes they can make to feel true to those values.

Solution Focused Brief Treatment

SFBT looks at what small steps a client can take to make their life better, it focuses on the future and less on the mistakes of the past.
