Not currently accepting new clients. I specialize in therapy for the big decisions that dramatically change your life. Maybe you're feeling panic, indecision, sadness, or grief about the kind of life you want but aren't living. I support people through life transitions related to things like sexuality and gender identity, education and career change, pregnancy and reproductive decisions, dating/partnering/marriage, parenting, divorce/separation, and disability/health concerns. I affirm LGBTQ+ people at all stages of life transition. I value and affirm blended and chosen families, polyamory, and non-monogamy.

Change is hard enough, and even harder if you struggle with depression, anxiety, or trauma. I work with members of all kinds of families, and I provide queer- and trans-affirming support across the lifespan. I support trauma recovery and treat chronic depression and anxiety.
Making a big life change is one of the hardest things you can do. You deserve to be affirmed in who you are, how you live, and who you love. You deserve support to get where you want to be.
