I work with teens, college students, and adults of all ages who are navigating anxiety, ADHD, identity exploration, life transitions, and more.

My approach to counseling is collaborative, compassionate, patient, and kind.

I enjoy working with people who are confronting major identity shifts, people who are navigating issues with their families of origin, and people who are trying to envision a future they never imagined themselves in (What is middle age? What is aging in queer spaces? How can I live meaningfully in late stage capitalism?)....
