As a licensed marriage and family therapist & licensed clinical social worker, I help you show up for yourself, your relationship, and your family. As a member of the queer community (agender, pan/lesbian), I have personal/professional experience providing knowledgeable and affirming care for people of many identities and types of relationships, including neurodiversity. I have specific experience working with queer kids/youth and their families; queer kids/youth have unique challenges in coming out, navigating family/peer relationships, interactions with school, and negotiating transition tasks.
I have specific experience assisting clients in transition; I advocate for clients to receive transition services and written WPATH letters for youth and adults. I know the transition process can be difficult for others in my clients’ lives; I provide empathetic support to those who have loved ones transitioning while helping my clients meet their goals.
I’m proud of you for getting this far! I take a team approach with all my clients, and want us to work towards your goals together. The first phone call is often the hardest step in therapy, regardless if you are engaging in therapy for the first time or have experience working in previous therapeutic relationships. I look forward to walking alongside you!
