I personalize therapy for every person that I work with, as I recognize that each individual has their own particular identity, history, and needs. I would characterize my therapeutic style as warm, collaborative, and compassionate, yet direct. I will partner with you in looking at areas of challenge or distress to better understand underlying problems, reassess unhelpful behavior or thought patterns, while bolstering your strengths to achieve a healthier way of being in the world.
I am committed to serving adults (18+ years old) of all genders, sexual orientations, ethnicities, religions, and cultural identities.
I have particular experience providing therapy for the following concerns:
-
Depression (mild to severe) and bipolar disorder
-
Anxiety and panic symptoms
-
Complex trauma and PTSD​
-
Social discomfort and loneliness
-
Relationship issues
-
Life transitions
-
Identity development
-
Work stress and career indecisions
-
Immigration and acculturation
-
Sexuality and gender exploration
I am familiar with supporting trans and gender expansive individuals in considering and accessing gender affirming medical care. This includes hormone replacement therapy alongside gender related surgeries and procedures.
​
I am able to provide mental health letters of support for gender affirming procedures for ongoing therapy patients or via short-term evaluations (usually 1-3 sessions).
