My Approach to Therapy

My approach to therapy is creative and collaborative. I believe each individual – no matter their age, sexuality, or gender identity – is unique and should have a therapist who is genuine, has unconditional positive regard, and has empathic understanding. In session, I will approach the client where they are and what they may currently be experiencing. My approach starts with building a positive, warm, and trusting relationship. This will provide a foundation of support, encouragement, and connection, and after that, the work can truly begin. I do not expect a client to work harder in our relationship than I am willing to do myself. My work in mental health currently includes individuals from ages 11 to 75 and those in and out of the LGBTQIA+ community. I have worked with anxiety, depression, suicidal ideation, grief and loss, life transitions, and trauma-related issues. I bring creativity, compassion, warmth, and a genuine desire to understand you in a safe, affirming, non-judgmental, and empowering environment.

My Practice & Services

All my combined life experiences have led me to this point, and it is my passion to help individuals, like you or your child, begin to see and change those things that have kept you from living your best life. I can promise to strive for a supportive, challenging, and hopeful experience with maybe a little laughter and play for good measure.

My View on the Purpose of Psychotherapy

I believe that healing is not about erasing struggles but learning how to carry them with strength and compassion. Whether you?re facing daily stress, navigating identity concerns, or working through trauma, I'm here to support your journey and I do not expect a client to work harder in our relationship than I am willing to do myself.
