Just like any other group, the lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender, queer and questioning (LGBTQ) community faces mental health issues and unique challenges. However, LGBTQ individuals are almost 3 times more likely than others to experience a mental health condition, such as depression or anxiety. Additionally, more than half of individuals who identify as transgender experience depression or anxiety. The LGBTQ community is also at a higher risk for suicide. Young people are even more at risk, as they may experience a lack of support at home and fear, hatred or prejudice in school. If you are a member of the LGBTQ community and are facing mental health challenges, you don’t have to suffer in silence. Reach out to one of TherapyDen’s LGBTQ experts and get help today.

Whether or not they are preparing for a professional career, the artistic/aesthetic athletes I work with have a more complicated relationship with their body than their non-athletic peers and need that relationship to be at the top of their game. I also work with non-athletes teens and adults who are seeking peace in their relationships with food and their body, as we all deserve to have! I often say, "Nothing is too big, too small, or too weird to talk about in session".

I work with teens, young adults, couples, and caregivers navigating anxiety, depression, trauma, and relationship challenges. I also have a special focus on supporting those in the medical field, first responders, and teachers. My clients are often seeking a space to explore their emotions, gain clarity, and heal from the weight of life’s struggles. Together, we will work through what is getting in the way of living authentically and creating the life you want to build.

My clients are people who are on a journey to understand themselves and their environments more clearly. I specialize in working with: people who are part of the LGBTQIA+ community, who identify as neurodivergent, who are living with chronic conditions, are experiencing life transitions, and those who experience symptoms from depression, anxiety, and other mood disorders. I also enjoy having conversations with clients about exploring gender identity and deconstructing from systems.

I utilize a combination of cognitive-behavioral therapy (CBT), mindfulness techniques, and person-centered therapy to help my clients develop healthy coping mechanisms and build resilience. I believe in empowering my clients to understand their emotions and make positive choices. I enjoy working with teens on navigating issues with friends & families as well as learning to navigate new intense emotions that arise in adolescence. I also love working with young adults transitioning to adulthood.

Being human is often tough. Sometimes we lose our way and can feel stuck and overwhelmed. Sometimes we would like to change parts of our lives or ourselves but don’t know how. Therapy can be an empowering way to promote healing, growth, and wellness. Often, we initially seek treatment to address a specific concern and then begin to uncover other areas of our lives in which we want to make meaningful change. My goal is for this process to feel supportive, affirming, and appropriately challenging.
