Message to clients

Life can feel overwhelming when navigating identity, change, and belonging. You might be questioning your attractions, building the courage to come out, or struggling with self-esteem, relationships, and transitions. For those far from home, the ache of missing what’s familiar or grieving from afar can be especially hard. Therapy offers a supportive space to help you feel seen, understood, and empowered.

I help clients deepen self-awareness, embrace their identity, and build meaningful connections. Together, we’ll address anxiety, life’s challenges, and finding balance, so you can feel confident and authentic in your independence.

I specialize in working with LGBTQ+ individuals, immigrants, First-Generation Americans, adolescents, and young adults, helping them navigate the intersections of their identities. If you’re ready to start your journey, reach out—I’m here to help.
