I am a licensed clinical social worker (LCSW) and licensed clinical addictions specialist (LCAS). I provide counseling in a very safe, open minded, and nurturing environment which gives my clients the support they need in order to heal and grow. I am affirming of all people including LGB and other queer identities, as well as trans, nonbinary, and other genderqueer individuals. I am supportive of and have experience working with clients in all types of relationship dynamics, including ethically non-monogamous and poly relationships.

Heal and grow

Therapy is a wonderful opportunity to discover new insights and heal from past hurts and disappointments, loss, abuse, or trauma.  I can help you learn ways to regulate emotions, tolerate distress, manage bereavement, or grief, and to be more at peace in your body and in the world. If you are in recovery from an alcohol or drug addiction, I can help you maintain your sobriety and continue to live a balanced, healthy life.   

manage stress

Learn new ways to cope with stress and anxiety; decrease your anxiety levels and increase your ability to relax and enjoy life. Discover techniques to reduce obsessive or unwanted negative thoughts, whether they stem from OCD, PTSD, or generalized anxiety. Learn to increase self esteem and let go of guilt and shame.  I am skilled at teaching mindfulness techniques, relaxation and breathing training, as well as helping to identify and replace negative thoughts to reduce fear and tension, decrease panic attacks, and increase quality of sleep.
