Pain, trauma, and fear all steal our sense of safety and leave us feeling guarded and disconnected. For years, I could only connect with others through dark humor and commiserating over shared strife. Overtime, I learned how to set the jokes aside and let myself be vulnerable enough to genuinely connect. Life is too heavy to do alone, so I want to help you find your balance between laughing it all off and letting others help carry the weight.

I take an existential, person-centered approach and believe change comes with understanding, acceptance, and authenticity. I believe meaning and purpose are something to be discovered and created, and are best found through connection and exploration with others.

I have a strong understanding of neurodivergence and how different brains process things differently. I have experience helping to navigate mood disorders, suicidality, and self-harm. I am also a proud member of the LGBTQIA+ community and bring my own personal experience and insight to the table when working with queer clients.

Change is possible, and it is never too early or too late to start growing.
