I specialize in working with adolescents and young adults particularly around challenges related to trauma, sexual health, and identity. I have a passion for working within the LGBTQIA+ community and providing gender affirming care for my clients. I approach the relationships I build with clients with openness, acceptance, a focus on strengths, and sometimes humor. We will work together to understand and explore your self identified needs and collaboratively forge a unique path based on what works for you. I have 8 years of experience working with adolescents and young adults around a multitude of mental health challenges, but particularly those who might be feeling the impacts of trauma or abuse on their current well-being. I utilize EMDR and DBT along with existential and feminist therapeutic approaches. Reaching out or meeting someone new, especially a therapist, can be terrifying and sometimes awkward! That's okay! Reach out and we can work together to explore comfort, safety, trust, and honestly discover if it feels like the right fit for you.
