Introduction

I am a Clinical Psychologist who specializes in working with teens, young adults, and adults. I have expertise in and passion for working with LGBTQ+ populations, depression (inc. chronic and severe with suicidal thinking), anxiety, trauma, and neurodivergence. I will never judge you for your darkness or your weirdness and will find and reflect your light back at you until you see it. I am passionate about helping you understand and put together what is going on in your brain and body, in your life, and the systems of culture so you don’t think you are broken. I am passionate about helping you feel empowered and engaged in your life, both now and in the future. My approach is open-minded, honest, collaborative, trauma-informed, identity-affirming, neurodivergence-affirming, & strengths-based. I will help you explore and understand your beliefs, build skills, and help you name your values to define wellness for YOU. I believe you are the expert on your own life and we will work together to figure out what approach to therapy will meet your needs. I will use humor and curiosity to help you find your own voice, identify meaning in your story, and trust yourself and your decisions. I will challenge you to believe in yourself and hold you to it. My mission in life is to create an unconditionally supportive space for the outcasts, oddballs, black sheep, weird kids, nerds, geeks, queer, neurodivergent, and the bullied of the world. You are my people & I want to know you!
