Bringing experience and empathy to meet your unique needs.

I am passionate about working with people in collaborative ways that connect with their unique vibrancy, which includes taking a trust-based, trauma-informed approach, to build safety with:

  • LGBTQIA+ community

  • Race

  • Religion and Spirituality

  • Non-traditional relationship styles including ENM, Poly and Kink

I take a process-based, case conceptualization-driven approach to customizing the work we do together.

I draw from principles of how we learn and interact with our internal experiences and external environment to build lives that really MATTER.

I primarily utilize Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, Exposure-based therapies, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy & Dialectical Behavior Therapy.
