About

You’re the client who reads self-help books, listens to psychology podcasts, and still wonders why old patterns won’t budge. Maybe anxiety, trauma, or substance use keeps hijacking your plans. You long for relationships that feel real and a life directed by your values, not your fears. You want a therapist who gets LGBTQ+ and non-traditional relationships, honours culture, and speaks plainly. If that sounds like you, I built my virtual practice with you in mind. I draw from ACT, DBT, RO-DBT, and exposure-based therapies to turn insight into meaningful change. We’ll clarify your values, reduce the impact of unhelpful thoughts, and build new, sustainable behaviors. I offer secure telehealth, trauma-informed care, and a safe, affirming space for kink and ENM exploration.
