Welcome!
Instead of unpredictable emotional highs and lows leading to conflict and exhaustion, I help teens and young adults build positive relationships with family and friends.
I take a warm and straightforward approach to therapy and invite both humor and sincerity into the room. I delight in welcoming the whole you into our sessions–both what feels comfortable to you now and the pieces that you are still figuring out.
Services
LGBTQ+ Community
For LGBTQ+ teens and young adults, working with a therapist with lived experience in the community can be a powerful support. I provide a safe space where we can acknowledge the challenges and the magic that come with showing yourself and the world who you truly are.
Grief and Loss
I offer grieving teens and young adults who hold shame, regret, guilt or confusion a non-judgemental space where they can make sense of their feelings. And for those teens and young adults who worry that embracing new experiences means losing their connection to close personal losses, I help develop specific grief rituals that honor the past while allowing space to grow.
Perfectionism and School Avoidance
With over a decade of experience working with and in schools, I am able to provide specialized support for teens and young adults with educational concerns. Whether a fear of failure is leading to all nighters or anxiety about school is causing complete avoidance, I am here to help you find balance and support you in achieving your goals.
