I am a Licensed Psychologist and I specialize in working with the LGBTQ+ community in all of its wonderful variations. I also work with clients who are part of the BDSM, kink, poly, and CNM communities. Clients who may benefit from working with me may be facing relationship struggles, identity concerns, depression, anxiety, and trauma. I believe therapy is a collaboration between a therapist and a client and in that process clients can create meaningful and beautiful changes in their lives. People who work with me describe that therapy is a balance between exploring emotions, discussing our past, and defining what goals and skills we would like to develop for their future. Exploring patterns and relationships in our lives helps us determine where we may be stuck and pinpoint how to move forward. I think therapy can be serious and humorous. We can laugh and cry. I describe my work as emotion-focused, interpersonal, and rooted in mindfulness practices.
