Collaborative & Creative Mental Health Support
for Teens & Adults with Specialization
in Disability-Affirming Care.

Welcome.

Thank you for taking the time to visit my page and delve into my work.

Taking the step to seek support requires tremendous courage, and navigating the journey to find the right therapist can feel especially daunting.

As a therapist, my goal is to co-create an authentic, safe, and courageous relationship with each unique individual. I firmly believe that within a strong therapeutic bond, beautiful transformations can unfold. My approach to therapy is characterized by openness, collaboration, affirmation, and honesty. I bring my full humanity into the therapeutic space and encourage each client to do the same. Whether through traditional psychotherapy ("talk" therapy) or art therapy, I offer support both in-person and virtually.

While I have a particular passion and expertise in supporting clients living with disabilities (such as chronic illness, physical disability, sensory impairments, ASD/ADHD, and rare diseases), I also enjoy working with individuals facing a variety of life challenges, including anxiety, depression, complex trauma, and relationship issues. I acknowledge the inherent difficulties of life and the reality of psychological and emotional pain. I believe that much of our distress stems from trauma and oppressive systems. With this understanding, my aim is to help each client make sense of their experiences and equip them with the tools to cultivate more empowerment, resilience, and connection in their lives.

You can learn more about me, my therapeutic approach, my additional work as a disability-affirming care consultant, as well as peer resources for those in the disability community throughout my site.

Again, thank you for the time and energy you are investing in getting to know me. If you find yourself resonating with anything I have shared, please reach out. I would love to hear from you.

Individual Counseling
+ Art Therapy

Individual counseling provides a warm, safe, and compassionate space for you to explore your inner world. I operate from a relational, trauma-informed, and feminist perspective and apply evidence-based interventions to support you and your unique goals.

Organizational
Consulting

I am passionate about educating fellow therapists, healthcare providers, and human service organizations on topics related to disability-affirming care and anti-ableist practices. This can look like lectures, trainings, workshops, and even one on one consultation.

Peer Support
Resources

I have a big heart for the peer support movement and value sharing resources to support those in the disability community and their loved ones. As such, on my page, you can find an ever-evolving list of helpful resources, including a free peer group I facilitate.
