The moments in people's lives when they reach out for counseling and therapy are often confusing, overwhelming and painful. They are also when a person can be especially vulnerable and open. Sometimes people are just looking for an outside perspective, a witness, or specific coping skills to get through the moment and move on. Others take the opportunity for a deeper look into their experiences and explore new ways to be in the world. I appreciate the range of what people are looking for in therapy and I love the conversations and insights that arise from reflection during vulnerable times. I work with individuals that identify as straight and within the LGBTQIA+ community using kindness, curiosity and humor. My belief in people's strength and resiliency is at the core of my work.
