You are the expert on your experience, I simply serve as a guide to the process. - Therapy is a partnership between you and me, (and my corgi Bennett who may make an appearance now and then - don’t worry, he’s bound by HIPAA too). - I am honored to be in a position where I am able to support my community. The community served include those struggling with a variety of relationship, intimacy, and sexual issues. I also work well with those who are navigating cultural transitions, such as self-identity / exploration, marriage, blended families, immigrants, and refugees. Navigating various domains of life is tough and you are not alone. If you have felt marginalized due to your sexual orientation, age, race, ethnicity, physical ability, or religion, it causes elevated feelings of anxiety, regret, and shame, that impact your day-to-day life and interpersonal relationships. - As a counselor, I employ a sex positive, goal oriented, directive, and integrative theoretical model with my clients. I believe in fostering a healthy environment within the therapeutic space by building trust and mutual respect with you. You should feel comfortable speaking about your thoughts and feelings free from any judgement. By creating such an environment, my goal is that you feel empowered in your exploration toward improving your overall mental health.

Your mind is constantly racing, worrying, second guessing, jumping to the worst case scenario, and you can't get it to stop. You may even have images that run through your mind or you replay specific events. Reassuring yourself that everything is ok or ignoring it makes it even louder. You might think you're going crazy but you're not! Anxiety is real and makes it incredibly difficult (sometimes impossible) for you to focus, sleep, eat, or just get through the day. If there's any good news in all of this, it's that therapy works. My passion is helping others take control of their lives and manage their symptoms. I am dedicated to using evidence based treatment strategies and I have seen incredible success in my clients. I have no doubt that with the right person and the right help, any client can live the life they deserve.
