You’re there when everyone else needs you but feel stuck and anxious when it comes to doing things for yourself. Your cup is often empty and you know what will help but the guilt and fear of disappointing others gets in the way. You know your needs should matter but you have a hard time believing it. When you do finally get the time, you’re often not sure how to spend it with yourself so you stay busy. You’re tired, ready to finally invest time in yourself and make a change.

My clients and I work together to navigate through mental health challenges and transitions in life. I specialize in working with people with gender dysphoria and those in the process of transition. Furthermore, I help my clients navigate issues related to racial identity and minority experiences. I work with various relationship types and forms, non-monogamy included.
I've worked with people from many walks of life. I have worked with and welcome artists, creative thinkers, those on the autism spectrum, LGBTQIA+ folks, as well as those who practice polyamory. I enjoy working with those who struggle to live as their authentic selves, helping to find the path to living your truth. Without authenticity, we can struggle fitting into boxes and shapes that just don't fit. Can I help you be more you?
Our clients are motivated to change their behaviors and circumstances and work hard to create progress through practice of new skills. We work with single-event and complex trauma, dissociation, and personality/interpersonal difficulties as well as more general mental health conditions. Our clients are usually between the ages of 18 and 50 but some clinicans work with younger and older clients. We are LGBTQ+ friendly, multi-culturally aware, and sex positive.

Yes, the state of the world right now is overwhelming. But to be honest, you've felt this way a long time: anxious, uncertain, despairing. Do you respond by trying to do everything perfectly, plan five steps ahead, never make any mistakes? Do you have a persistent feeling of "not good enough" that follows you from work to relationships to family? Is your mind often racing with thoughts about what you could have done better or how you disappointed someone?
Whether you’ve been in therapy before or it’s your first time, taking the steps to get started is the hardest part. Daily life can be challenging and stressful. Managing daily responsibilities, work, significant others/family/friends; on top of stress of anxiety, that sometimes comes out of no where, depression and/or relationship issues can feel impossible. Learning to balance it all seems out of reach, but it doesn't have to. I look forward to helping you take your life back.
Our clinical team provides counseling services to children, adolescents, adults, elders, couples and families. We believe in meeting clients where they are at and affirming all identities. We work collaboratively with our clients to alleviate physical, social and emotional barriers. We will work together to empower you to understand patterns of behavior, let go of what no longer serves you, practice self-awareness and cultivate the happiness that is already within you.
I would be a great fit for clients looking to address anxiety, trauma, ADHD and body image concerns. Clients who may find themselves repeating painful patterns in their life and would like assistance working through this to live the life they want to live. I also enjoy working with young professionals dealing with imposter syndrome, folks looking to navigate the dating world and/or improve their personal relationships. Lastly, clients looking to improve their self esteem to feel their best.
My clients may be navigating difficult life situations such as stressful work environments, neurodivergence, inequity in domestic labor, challenges related to maternal mental health, parenting, special education advocacy, and other crises. We will work together to build coping skills, confidence and achieve stability; enhancing your relationships and self-advocacy. Ultimately, the goal is not only symptom relief but also deeper self-awareness and empowerment in your life.
