Overview

Those who are committed to self-awareness and accountable for their personal “work” and growth that happens in and outside the therapy session. Those seeking support for challenges involved with life transitions and willing to develop an honest therapeutic relationship while taking ownership of their healing journey.

Writing, literature, and anthropology nourish my curiosity about the unique and universal experiences of being human. My holistic background includes nutrition, astrology, energy therapy, yoga, and meditation. I hold my Master’s in Clinical Social Work and specialize in LGBTQIA+ population and neurodivergent affirming care.

If you're interested in connecting to see if I might be the right complement and support for your healing journey, please reach out. Our relationship and rapport with our therapists are essential while recognizing that there are no "all-knowing" psychotherapists out there. I have lived experience, compassion, and a commitment to growth.
