I employ evidence-based approaches focused on mindful awareness, self-attunement, living a value-directed life, self-compassion, tinkering with unhelpful patterns of thought & behavior - all couched within the important context of our relationship.
Common issues addressed in therapy include relationships, stress, depression, anxiety, grief, life transitions, and abuse and neglect.

Everyone enters therapy at a different emotional place, and I work to meet clients where they are. Although I use various methods, my approach is primarily relational because the most powerful catalyst for change is the relationship that we create.
Side by side we can move towards softening your pain. I want you to be able to fully feel who you are, even if for the first time. I am accepting new clients in person or virtual send an email to [email protected] for an appointment.

I love using Internal Family Systems and other experiential approaches. I feel this allows my client's to be with their emotions without feeling flooded. I also utilize mindfulness techniques and encourage the practice of self compassion.
Life history and trauma history are how I get to know you. On about the 3rd visit, I'll determine your attachment style and we'll discuss any problems you have in relationships. But you can expect we'll begin targeting issues from session one.

I practice Emotional Transformation Therapy (ETT), a modern therapy that offers rapid results based on brain science. I combine this approach with others, such as Internal Family Systems, and Attachment Theory.
As a queer, neurodivergent therapist, I especially enjoy working with clients who are exploring identity, navigating life with multiple diagnoses (including Depression, Anxiety, Bipolar, & ADHD), and building resilience after trauma.

My framework is relational-cultural theory, which focuses on empowerment and strengths-based change, while valuing the impact of culture and trauma in our lives. In my practice, you are always in charge of your own therapy.
