About Me

    A strong, trusting relationship is at the heart of effective therapy. I strive to create a space where clients feel comfortable exploring the concerns that brought them to therapy and working toward meaningful change at their own pace. I believe that we move through many stages of growth throughout our lives, and each transition—whether it’s a divorce, a new baby, graduation, a breakup, retirement, or the loss of someone we love—can bring both opportunity and stress. Even positive changes can feel overwhelming and impact how we function day to day.

    I work best with individuals who appreciate a straightforward, collaborative approach and want an active role in setting the direction and pace of therapy. Curiosity about oneself, openness to different perspectives, and a sense of humor can be helpful companions along the way.

    I provide individual therapy for children, adolescents, and adults ages 11 and older. As part of GBCC’s LGBTQ Affirming Care Line since 2017, I am honored to offer a supportive and affirming space for individuals seeking a gender therapist. My additional areas of focus include ADHD, women’s issues, life transitions, and mood concerns.
