Bio

Therapy can offer a completely new perspective on the challenges we face daily. With my collaborative approach, I work to meet people where they are to create a safe, nurturing, non-judgmental, and empathetic space. My training as a systemic, relational thinker allows me to recognize how outside systems such as families, relationships, friendships, communities, culture, and larger institutions impact our thoughts, feelings, and behaviors. I am a strong believer that everyone deserves to feel heard and understood.

I specialize in couples and family therapy. I work with relationships of all structures, as well as families to be able to identify the relational patterns affecting their lives. My approach incorporates tenets of Dialectical Behavioral Therapy, Emotion Focused Therapy, the evidence-based Gottman Method, and Narrative Relational Therapy. As a gender non-conforming, kink-aware, and systemically trained therapist, my goal and passion in working with relationships and families is to help my clients be able to feel supported and empowered to better navigate conflict, unlearn patterns of communication that make them feel stuck, increase or rediscover strengths, and deepen connections.
