they/them pronouns

"I believe that therapy is a journey of personal healing.

I offer an authentic, non-judgmental, and honest relationship with my clients, and utilize narrative-focused interventions to assist others in healing past and current traumas.

I view mental health treatment as enabling the empowerment, self-discovery, and love for oneself and others.

Our sessions will have a balance of good humor and dedicated focus to achieve your goals"
