I enjoy variety and, as such, like to invite clients from all walks of life. I'm experienced with therapeutic concerns including trauma, identity questions, relational and sexual issues, depression/anxiety, substance use, and compulsivity. I like supporting clients struggling with their own behavior or relationships, maybe searching for meaning in their experiences. I love working with queer people, both sexual and gender minorities. I also really enjoy teens 14yo+. I match best with motivated, curious people and I prioritize in-person work (I offer virtual sessions as a plan-b for illness or scheduling issues). I am primarily an existential therapist, meaning I'm concerned with how you see your place in the world. I want to help examine your motivations and systemic influences outside of the standard assumptions you hold. Many of my clients (in early recovery esp) are faced with "who am I now" questions. I'm endlessly excited to explore that territory with people. I am always happy to speak with you, free of charge, as you explore your therapy options! I incorporate humor and candor into my work which I hope helps clients be extremely open with me. I always like to say that if you've got stuff you're embarrassed to talk about, I promise these feathers are hard to ruffle (I've heard worse).
