About

We all need love, community, and purpose. For many, the suffering of our past and the oppressive systems of our present leave us anxious, depressed, and alienated. We may wonder how to feel agentic in our lives when the future feels so precarious. I offer a caring, non-judgmental space to explore the full complexity of your identity and experience. Together, we’ll work to recognize and change the patterns preventing you from building the life and relationships you want, while grieving what can’t be changed. I believe when we begin to imagine possibilities for ourselves - even possibilities outside of capitalism, we can create them. Starting therapy takes courage, especially if you've had difficult experiences with therapy in the past. With this in mind, my approach is person-centered and abolitionist, centering your self-determination, goals, and desires. I draw from multiple evidence-based orientations, predominantly psychodynamic therapy, relational-cultural theory, and ACT.
