Therapist Details

Sometimes life feels overwhelming, confusing, or painful. In those moments, making a connection with a counselor can be a powerful experience, and I am grateful to work each day with clients like you.

I received a Certificate in Multicultural & Social Justice Counseling and am passionate about working with the LGBTQ+ community and other historically marginalized identities. As a member of the LGBTQ+ community myself, I understand how identity intertwines with multiple aspects of life, and I make sure to understand your unique story in order to best serve you in counseling. I am committed to offering counseling services that involve and embrace all of the differences that each person brings to the room.
