About My Clients
I specialize in working with folks in the LGBTQ+ community. I’m particularly interested in working with parents/caregivers of LGBTQ+ youth to help them navigate and support the evolution of their child’s gender identity and sexual orientation. I also enjoy working with LGBTQ+ couples to support them through relationship issues, life transition struggles, and a variety of other issues.
My Background and Approach
I am a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC), Adjunct Professor, and clinical quality professional - so I’m passionate about providing forward-thinking, current, and high quality therapeutic services to my clients. I have extensive experience working with LGBTQ+ folks, both clinically and academically, and have a depth of knowledge in LGBTQ+ issues. I approach therapy with optimism, creativity, and humor. I utilize gender-affirming therapeutic approaches, specifically Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), as well as components of Motivational Interviewing (MI) and solution-focused therapy.
My Personal Beliefs and Interests
As an active member of the LGBTQ+ community, I know how important it is to find a therapist who understand the unique journey you’re on. It can be challenging to find someone who understands your life transitions and specific struggles or needs, and I’m happy to provide support to those who are also members of the LGBTQ+ community or are active allies.
