Counseling is a partnership.

The goal is to help you live a better life, have better relationships, and feel better being you.

Together we will identify your goals, recognizing and building on your strengths and unique qualities. We will find realistic, reasonable strategies that work for you. I am a LGBTQIA-Affirming, sex-positive therapist. My pronouns are she/her/hers. I accept many insurances and private pay/out of network. I serve adults and seniors.

My number one goal as a psychotherapist and coach is to provide a space for you to talk, heal, grow, try new ways of being, and become empowered to take your next steps towards the life you want. In business, we seldom think twice about hiring experts and consultants, consulting with a board of directors, or searching for the right mentor to help us create success. History proves that teams succeed where individuals cannot. Why offer less than the same to yourself? If you are tired of walking the path alone, I am here to walk it with you.

I enjoy working with people who think and live on the edges of the normal bell curve. I tend to focus on adults, 30 and up, as individuals and in various relationship configurations. People come to me for a variety of reasons: relationship issues, adjustment to life changes (job loss, divorce, death, breakups), emotional/mental tuneups, rediscovering who they are and why they are here, taking back their lives from anxiety, depression, trauma, and so on. Whatever the reason, I use counseling and coaching techniques to help each person develop and activate a plan to move forward and create more satisfying results in life.

People of all persuasions are welcome at my door: straight, LGBTQ, married, partnered, poly, pagan, Christian, “spiritual” . . . whatever your identification, I look forward to hearing your story and helping you write the next chapter.
