About

Sometimes we come to therapy because we are experiencing something specific and other times something just feels off. Any time is a good time (I know I have to say that, but I really believe it). I also believe that our experiences occur within the impact of systems (relationships, work, family, communities, school, society etc.). The more we uncover our understanding of how these systems interact, the better we understand our world and ourselves. This helps us disrupt patterns and deepen groundedness and joy. Clients tell me that our work together helps them see themselves more fully and therefore see others more fully.

I work with couples trying to care for each other well even when it’s not easy, teenagers exploring what it means to be in this world, and parents navigating how to make their home safe and loving for their queer/trans kids. This might mean working together individually or in pairs (romantic partners, friends, siblings, parent/child, co-workers etc.)

In therapy, it will feel like you don’t have to hold the weight all on your own and we’ll laugh together in the places we can find humor. I like to be kindly honest, while supporting you to come into your own understandings. You will always set the pace and purpose. I hope this journey is exactly what you need it to be and I look forward to hearing from you.
