About My Clients

Are you finding yourself in the same stuck patterns that come in the way of happiness? Are you hoping to bring more of your authentic self to your relationships? Transitions & loss can be challenging. I offer a therapeutic space where difficult times & challenging relationships can be explored & repaired to make room for healing & growth. I’d be honored to help you navigate this path.

My Background and Approach

Whatever it is that brought you here, I can help you sort things through, meet your unique goals, & improve your relationship with yourself & others. I work from a family systems/relational lens & for over 15 years, I have provided affirming therapeutic services to individuals, partners, & families of diverse compositions. My clients typically come to me for support with symptoms related to depression & anxiety, navigating partner and/or parent-child relationships, major life transitions, grief & loss. Together we’ll create a supportive/collaborative space needed for you to heal & to find your way again. I specialize in working with trans/queer relationships and families and I often provide support letters for gender affirming care for youth and adults.
