The most important part of therapy is the relationship

Research consistently shows that, across all different styles of therapy, what matters most is the genuine human relationship between the client and their therapist. So I invite you to get to know me. I think you’ll find me warm, compassionate, and nonjudgmental. I work with openness, curiosity, collaboration, and humor. There is healing power in a good laugh!

In my practice, I welcome and affirm all people, bodies, identities, and abilities. I am committed to cultural humility, to questioning and unlearning my biases, and to the continuous work of expanding my understanding.

One of my highest values is to help people feel less alone. I believe we are all seeking a sense of belonging — to be deeply known to ourselves and others. I welcome all parts of you, and I hope you will feel seen and valued in our work together.
