About My Clients
Do you find yourself stuck in the same patterns—whether in relationships, with substances, or in a loop of negative thoughts? Maybe it feels like you’re replaying the same old script, no matter how hard you try. I can help you shift painful patterns and move in a new direction -- together, we’ll build self-agency, inner harmony, and a path forward that truly aligns with your values. I have specialized experience working with the recovery and LGBTQ+ communities (and their loved ones).
My Background and Approach
Curiosity is at the heart of the talk therapy process. It invites us to approach our thoughts, feelings, and behaviors with openness and a willingness to explore rather than judge. An antidote to shame, curiosity allows us to sit with uncertainty, develop unexpected insights, and heal wounded parts of ourselves with loving attention. I offer a trauma-informed approach and years of experience working with acute co-occurring disorders. My therapeutic style blends presence, curiosity, and empathy with a willingness to gently challenge you. I work to earn your trust and encourage you to step outside your comfort zone and engage with difficult emotions in the secure space of therapy.
My Personal Beliefs and Interests
I believe therapy should be a safe, affirming space where you can show up exactly as you are—no masks, no judgment. As a lesbian-identified, trans-allied, and poly-affirming therapist, I’m committed to providing inclusive, compassionate care, with a special focus on supporting the LGBTQ+ and recovery communities. My work is rooted in social justice, breaking the stigma around mental health, addiction, and trauma, and creating a space where clients feel truly seen and heard. I honor my clients' inner wisdom, cultural backgrounds, and lived experiences, taking a collaborative approach to their treatment planning and goals.
