About

I passionately believe in your inherent worth, and I believe you have the tools needed to make the changes you want in your life. My goal is to walk beside you on your journey and collaborate with you on where you want to go, what you want to do, and how you wish to cultivate your own experience. I believe good therapy stems from non-judgement and acceptance. Come as you are, and know that however you show up, that is ok. We often go through life with worry, fear, sadness, self-blame, and insecurity. We feel as though we need to change, or that we aren’t good enough; and we don’t know where to start. My job is to support you in living and feeling the way you want to, and help you find self-acceptance along the way. I am honored and privileged to bear witness to the stories, experiences, and challenges that shape who you are as a person. People of all genders, sexualities, races, sizes, and abilities are welcome in my practice. Recognizing and acknowledging my privilege and how it shows up in relationships, personal and professional, is of great importance to me. Let’s work together so that you can show up for your loved ones – and perhaps most importantly, for yourself – as your preferred self.
