I lead with empathy and authenticity, and I’m not afraid to incorporate humor or a direct approach when it helps move our work forward. My role is to guide you toward greater stability, confidence, and hope as you navigate where you are and where you want to go. I work with clients of all ages and use practical skill‑building to help improve daily functioning and emotional wellbeing. I specialize in supporting LGBTQIA+ individuals, especially those who identify as transgender or gender diverse, and offer an affirming, empathetic space grounded in deep understanding. I’m trained in the CAMS model (Collaborative Assessment and Management of Suicidality) and use this framework to support clients navigating chronic suicidality. I also bring personal insight into living with chronic health conditions and am passionate about helping clients manage the emotional and practical challenges of conditions like type 1 and type 2 diabetes. My focus is to provide informed, affirming, and skill‑based support that helps you strengthen resilience and improve overall functioning.
