Therapy is a deeply personal and individual experience requiring care and understanding. I provide clients with a safe space to be heard without judgment, bias, or fear of recourse. I approach therapy with the perspective that we are forming a relationship to tackle your struggles collaboratively, while keeping in mind your feelings, concerns and goals. Supporting those dealing with loss and personal crises are a passion of mine.

Have you ever felt afraid to fail? Regardless of the circumstances, failing, for some is not an option, yet it consumes many to a point where you become stifled into being complacent. You might find yourself frozen in doing nothing because you are stuck. The truth is high achievers often struggle with anxiety – it’s par for the course. Those who find success in all aspects of life are often viewed as “having it all together” but what often follows is a bag full of stress, depression, and anxiety. These states often lead to destructive or disturbing thought patterns, which then leads to negative influences on behavior and emotions.

I have a variety of methods to reach that goal. I utilize experiential, narrative, structural, constructivist, or insight oriented approaches, individually tailored to each situation. I have a special fondness for teenagers. My connection to children informs my approach to parenting.

Unfortunately, I am not currently accepting new clients. Online therapy for women who are just trying to keep it all together. You've spent for as long as you can remember trying to balance it all, but it’s exhausting and you don’t think you can do it anymore. As far as anyone can tell, you’ve got a great life. You’re accomplished, driven, and dependable. But on the inside, you never feel good enough and the voice in your head is quick to remind you of all the ways you’re falling short. You're tired of giving so much to everyone else while you continue to come last on your list. Not anymore. It's time for a change.

Change and well being are possible. Relationships and circumstances of life often present challenges that overwhelm us mentally, emotionally, and physically. As a result we develop blocks in our thinking, feelings, and develop physical symptoms that cause distress and prevent us from functioning at an optimal level. I am dedicated to understanding your unique experiences and history. Together we develop a plan creating a well balanced integration between thoughts, feelings, and behavior. Development of trust and the practice of mindful awareness enables self reflection, clarity of perspective and compassionate understanding of your history as it impacts present day choices.

My passion and expertise lies in helping young adults work through insecurities and the uncertainties of adulthood. It can be difficult to find your way in relationships, career/education, and overall identity. Unfortunately there is no clear and direct path to take. This uncertainty can lead to self-doubt, “imposter syndrome”, and frustration. Maybe you are feeling stuck- you are trying your best to create the life you want but are hitting dead ends. You’ve turned to your support system but are left feeling a nagging want for more clarity and direction.

LGBTQ+ Therapists

Do LGBTQ-affirmative therapists receive special training?

Yes. Many therapists who practice LGBTQ-affirmative therapy have completed specialized training, either during their degree program or as continuing education, to learn the core principles of affirmative therapy and how to best support their LGBTQ clients; some have received certifications in LGBTQ-affirmative therapy. Prospective clients should inquire as to a clinician’s background and training to ensure a good fit.

Why might I want to see an LGBTQ-affirming or LGBTQ-friendly therapist?

Queer and gender-non-conforming individuals frequently experience bias and marginalization in day-to-day life. Working with a therapist who understands these unique challenges, as well as accepts and affirms their identity, can help LGBTQ clients feel safe and supported during therapy—allowing them to better navigate their relationships, mental health, and anything else that they wish to explore during therapy. It is important to note that many therapists can be effective in their work with LGBTQ+ individuals, even in the absence of specific training or background knowledge. The most important component in therapy is the alliance between therapist and client, and this alliance can exist between individuals with very different backgrounds.

How can I find an LGBTQ-friendly therapist?

You may wish to inquire about a therapist’s expertise with your specific challenges or concerns—depression, for example, or relationship strife—as well as their past experiences treating LGBTQ+ clients. Prospective clients may also ask whether a therapist has obtained additional training and/or certification in LGBTQ-affirmative techniques.

How can I inquire about a therapist’s experience with LGBTQ issues?

Prospective clients should feel empowered to directly ask therapists whether they have received training or been certified in LGBTQ-affirming therapy; competent therapists will be happy to explain their educational background and preferred approach(es) to help a client find the best match for them. Clients may also wish to ask how a therapist has treated clients with their particular challenges in the past and what they expect treatment to look like.

Are all the therapists listed in the LGBTQ directory themselves members of the LGBTQ community?

While therapists may choose to disclose their sexual orientation or gender identity in their profiles, the LGBTQ directory features not only those who have shared this information but also those who assert specialized training or experience in providing support to queer individuals, couples or families.
