Nice to meet you
As a cancer survivor, I work with people who have been recently diagnosed or are going through treatment. I’m passionate about supporting members of the LGBTQIA+ community, including gay, trans, and nonbinary individuals. I also specialize in anxiety, depressive disorders, and kink/BDSM.
I most often use CBT, DBT, solution-focused therapy, and psychoeducation. I work to empower you as you learn about yourself and your needs. I typically offer short-term therapy (12–16 sessions), followed by twice-monthly or monthly check-ins to help you practice and maintain your skills.
