We are LGBTQ+ allied and provide gender affirming care.
I specialize in working with gifted adults, therapists, health care workers, trauma, DBT after-care, and anyone who feels as if they don’t fit in. My practice is trauma informed. In our work we will use mindfulness and DBT skills to create stability. We will process trauma, free up creative blocks, and develop self-love using Internal Family Systems, EMDR, and hypnosis. We will explore your values so that you may align your behaviors to them. I am passionate about supporting trans and non-binary, and LGBTQIA+ folx. Each session is tailored to your current needs and ongoing goals. My main goal is to help you learn to love yourself so that you can feel resilient no matter what life brings your way... and experience joy. You deserve it.
I also provide LPCC clinical supervision. Please message me if interested using the form below.
I enjoy working with all individuals aged 6+. In our time together, I will teach therapeutic devices such as coping skills, symptom management, emotion identification, cognitive restructuring, and self-care. I am trained in EMDR which allows clients to reprocess trauma and combat negative core beliefs they hold about themselves. My athletic background allows me to relate to active individuals and connect their physical and mental health. I enjoy working with clients on navigating life transitions, such as graduation, moving, and new relationships. I am LGBTQIA+ affirming and have experience working with transgender individuals on gender exploration and identity. Together, we will overcome mental health barriers so you can engage in healthy relationships, function effectively at school and work, and accomplish your goals without mental health complications being the inhibitor.
My therapeutic approach is client-centered, anti-oppressive, and trauma-informed. I work with children and adults ages 4 and older, and am especially passionate about supporting individuals who have experienced trauma, are navigating family planning and parenthood, and are exploring sexuality and/or gender identity. When working with me you can expect my approach to be nonjudgmental and relationship based, and I frequently draw on trauma-focused cognitive behavioral therapy, acceptance and commitment, narrative, and mindfulness approaches. I hope to empower you to live a life you take joy in, and feel such excitement to be with you on your journey.
I believe that by reconnecting with your sense of self, people can heal. I work with individuals and couples who are dealing with trauma, PTSD, depression, anxiety, grief, and major life changes. I also have experience supporting people and families through psychosis. My approach is straightforward: You already have strengths worth building on. Rather than focusing on what's "wrong," we'll work together to help you regulate emotions, express yourself authentically, and feel more grounded in your daily life.
I particularly enjoy working with Gen Z clients through their journey of self-discovery and personal growth, and I have a deep appreciation for those in caregiving roles. I understand how caregiving can impact your sense of identity and well-being, and I'm here to support you in maintaining your own emotional health while caring for others.
I draw from several approaches, but I'll always explain what we're doing and why. My style is structured yet approachable—trauma-informed, LGBTQIA+ affirming, and culturally responsive to diverse backgrounds and identities. I am trained in evidence-based Cognitive Processing Therapy (CPT) for PTSD and incorporate Internal Family Systems (IFS) to help clients access their core Self and heal wounded parts. I also integrate mindfulness and DBT skills to enhance emotion regulation and self-expression. My person-centered approach emphasizes your inherent strengths, fostering empowerment and authentic healing at your own pace.
