(she/her)
Welcome! If you are seeking a down to earth and relaxed therapist- you're in the right place. I specialize in creating a safe, affirming space for individuals within the LGBTQ+ communities, where I have lived experience, and individuals navigating chronic illness and caregiving. I understand how important it is to feel heard and validated, especially when dealing with sensitive topics such as gender identity, transgender health, trauma, anxiety, grief, depression, boundary setting, communication, and more. I write gender affirming care letters.
Get to know me
In our first session together, here's what you can expect
First sessions are about getting to know you! This allows you to begin feeling comfortable with therapy and me. Of course there are some standard questions we have to go through, but I try to keep it brief and as enjoyable as possible. First sessions also let you share what brings you to therapy and some goals you look forward to working on.
The biggest strengths that I bring into our sessions
My greatest strength as a therapist is my ability to listen without judgement. My style of therapy is eclectic and flexible, because everyone is an individual! You will find me empathetic, open-minded, affirming, supportive, and honest. Our sessions will always be a safe and inclusive space.
The clients I'm best positioned to serve
I love working with LGBTQ+ community, foster families, and individuals with chronic illness.

VirtualMy treatment methods
Trauma-Focused CBT
My approach to therapy modalities is from an intersectional perspective. My style is eclectic and tailored to each person’s unique needs because I believe there is no one-size-fits-all approach. The therapeutic alliance, built on trust and rapport, is key to positive outcomes in therapy with me. I strive to foster a warm, inclusive, and person-centered environment. I routinely pull aspects from CBT, TF-CBT DBT, Narrative Therapy, Mindfulness, and others.
Solution Focused Brief Treatment
I have extensive experience in SFBT. This lets us create plans and tasks on how to best solve a tangible concern you have. Chores? School? something else you're struggling to work through, we can take it step by step!
