About me

I strive to create a safe, supportive, non-judgmental space for clients who feel burdened with hard feelings. You may be navigating a period of anxiety or depression, struggling with a difficult phase of life, unsure of how to move beyond past experiences, or feeling badly about who you are as a person or loved one. We will create a collaborative and respectful partnership where we can work through these questions together, empowering you to find your path back to joy and calm in your life. Together, I believe we can rediscover your strength, hope, and confidence. Wherever you are in your journey towards wellness, I will meet you there and will walk with you in a collaborative relationship towards healing. I welcome and am actively affirming of all sexualities, gender identities, and cultural backgrounds, and have particular experience with LBGTQ+ clients who are navigating the intersection of sexuality and culture or adjusting to life transitions, including parenthood.
