About

Life and relationships can be stressful or painful at times. I am passionate about working with families, romantic partnerships, and individuals to move through the stress and pain towards healing and authentic connection. I specialize in working with families of adolescents, romantic partnerships, and individuals through a systemic lens. I will work with you to reconnect to your personal and relational strengths to address the concerns you bring with you to therapy. The therapy modalities that I pull from are Emotionally Focused Therapy, narrative therapy, solution-focused therapy, structural therapy, and mindfulness.

My therapeutic practice centers around relational conflict and infidelity, intimacy, sexual concerns, adolescent concerns, family dynamics, grief, trauma, and the stuck-ness and uncertainty that can come with navigating stressful life changes. I am also passionate about working with LGBTQIA+ youth, teens, and their families.

I am a white, queer, nerdy, and sex-positive individual. Recognizing how my identities shape the way that I can move through the world and the privileges that I experience, I am dedicated to utilizing an anti-oppressive and identity-affirming approach throughout our work together. I strive to create a space where you can be your entire authentic self.
