About Me
I came into this work not just as a therapist, but as a person who's been through my own healing and growth. Iām a queer, nonbinary person, and I know how powerful it can be to have someone walk alongside you as you figure things out. Iām deeply creative. I love writing, making music, and finding beauty in unexpected places. Being outside helps me feel grounded and alive; I spend as much time as I can in the woods, near water, or just soaking up sunshine.

Why I Became A Therapist
I became a therapist because I saw the power of therapy in my own life. Life can be filled with tough seasons that you're not meant to go through alone. As a young person, I wished I had more skills to help others as they went through hard times. So with further training and education, I realized my dream and love the work I'm doing. Walking alongside folks and supporting them on this journey of life is incredibly rewarding!
