About Me

How I Show Up

As a therapist, I bring a curious, compassionate presence and a steady belief in your capacity to grow. I work from a values- and strengths-based perspective, meaning we’ll pay attention to what matters most to you and build on what’s already working in your life. My approach is eclectic and flexible - I meet you where you are and adapt our work to support your unique needs and goals. Whether we’re exploring something difficult or celebrating a small win, I’m here with both care and clarity.

I deeply value each person’s unique story. I’m genuinely interested in getting to know the main characters in your life and understanding the trials, triumphs, and turning points that shape each chapter. Therapy with me is less about “fixing” and more about uncovering - discovering the themes, patterns, and possibilities already present in your experience. Your story matters, and I consider it a privilege to explore it with you.

Therapy can be hard work - but that doesn’t mean it has to be heavy all the time. I often bring a quick wit and a sense of humor into sessions, and many clients find that laughter becomes a meaningful part of our work together. Sometimes, therapy can actually be fun! Humor helps us feel more connected, creates moments of relief, and reminds us that we’re allowed to be fully human - even in the midst of healing.

It’s also deeply important to me that therapy is a truly affirming space. I am committed to being an ally to my queer clients and providing a safe, supportive environment for LGBTQ individuals and other minority groups. I understand the courage it takes to show up as your full self, and I strive to honor that courage with openness, respect, and wholehearted affirmation. Whoever you are, wherever you come from, you’re welcome here.
