I find that I work best with those who are looking for a change from the extremely clinical-feeling approach to therapy. I believe therapy shouldn't feel hierarchical, nor alienating- you and I are on the same level here. We’re collaborating to help you reach a point in your life where you feel stable and content. I’m not here to judge you or tell you what to do, but rather to work as a friendly voice to help you connect missing pieces and wade through life’s challenges with more confidence. I've had many successes treating those with trauma, anxiety, depression, PTSD, BPD and several other acronyms that are on a bulleted list below. And of course, fellow queers. More plainly, I work well with people who like a direct approach and a conversational-feeling session. I don't want to talk at you for 50 minutes or vice versa, I want to work together! Reaching out can be scary and pretty awkward. I like to think I'm not scary, but maybe awkward in an endearing way. If calling isn't your thing, email or text me. I promise to make it as painless as possible.
