Individual & Relationship Therapy
Individual therapy (Currently accepting new clients!)
I create a space of collaboration, where we can work together to discover your sense of agency, and what makes you, you. You may feel intrigued by my approach, and wonder if I have had experience with your specific needs. Finding the right therapist extends beyond philosophical alignment— experience matters. Here are some examples of people I have helped over the last decade as a therapist:
LGBTQIA2S+ adolescents, specifically trans and gender nonconforming adolescents over 12. If you are an adolescent searching for understanding and support, I have helped others with the same need. If you are a parent of a trans or gender nonconforming teen, and you are worried about the current hostile political climate, I have helped teens navigate difficult emotions around belonging. We may not be able to single-handedly change society overnight, but we can love ourselves in the face of those demonizing us. I have helped teens see this truth, building resilience.
LGBTQIA2S+ adults, perhaps you are navigating your relationship to your identities, or are settled in your identity and want a therapist who can understand your day-to-day life without having to explain, educate, or defend queer life (which can be pathologized by some who do not understand). I am here to focus on your needs without preconceived notions of what is “normal.” I have helped others, like you, discover their version of “normal.”
Adolescents and adults with ADHD and Autism. I have worked extensively with people on the Autism spectrum, as well as people with ADHD. If you feel like conventional wisdom around motivation hasn’t worked for you, I have helped people discover how to work with their brain, not against it.
Late in life identity exploration. Sometimes we come in to our queer identity later. If this is you, you are not alone. I have helped people like you navigate their identity, I promise you this is not just a young person’s pursuit.
Women navigating life transitions and relationships. I have helped women navigate life transitions, some were transitioning from school to the world of work, or transitioning to a new career, job, or relationship. If you are experiencing anxiety about a new change or are finding your new reality challenging, I have helped others in your situation find peace and power.
Men navigating life transitions and relationships. Men of all kinds can feel alone in the responsibility to be a positive force in the world, and fear asking for help. If you feel isolated in searching for what it means to be a “good man,” I have helped men discover how to get in touch with their feelings, and support those closest to them—while being able to ask for support themselves.
Men 60+ navigating relationships. The world is changing and splintering. Perhaps you feel you once knew what it took to be a “good man,” and now the rules got changed on you. I have helped men discover how to approach their relationships in ways that feel connective and meaningful, without having to abandon themselves in the process.
Other therapists. Perhaps you are new to the field, and you are struggling to balance all of the expectations of this profession. Perhaps you are a seasoned therapist who appreciates new and different prospectives. Perhaps you are in a moment of transition in your career, and can’t decide what is best. My experience as a clinical director, supervisor, and therapist to other therapists give me the tools to collaborate with you.
If you do not see yourself represented above, don’t let that keep you from reaching out to me. This is certainly not a complete list, but rather specific examples of particular expertise. I, like most therapists, have been trained to help folks of all identities cope with depression, anxiety, and trauma. If you need help, reach out, and I will do my best to get you the services you need, even if it’s not with me.
Relationship therapy (Currently Accepting new clients!)
I offer couples’ counseling or individual therapy for parent(s) and caregiver(s) of trans and gender nonconforming children—including adult children— to help you understand your child better. I also offer couples’ counseling for people with different neurotypes (ie. ADHD and Autism).
For parents of trans and gender nonconforming children, I offer a place to say “the wrong thing,” so that you can focus on your connection with your child. For couples with different neurotypes, I offer perspectives on how to communicate when your brains are wired differently. Reach out to see if your needs as a couple match my expertise!
