I blend deep insight with practical tools—kind of like mixing Freud with a to-do list. I provide services for individuals and couples, with a focus on LGBTQIA+ and gender expansive clients. I specialize in supporting people through trauma, mood disorders, anxiety, depression, and relationship or identity-related distress. If you're ready to dig deep, laugh a little, and grow a lot—let’s talk.
I rely on Psychodynamic Therapy to understand the "why”, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) to help you talk back to your inner critic, and Emotionally Focused Therapy (EFT) to tune into the real feelings under the surface. When working with couples, I use the Gottman Method and a Systemic therapy to turn conflict into connection and build emotional intimacy.

What would you like clients to know?
