I believe you know yourself better than anyone else. I also believe humans are built for connection, and when you find a therapist that is the right fit for your needs, therapy can be healing. I encourage safety and empowerment with my clients, compassionately challenging them to work toward their individual goals and embrace their intuitive sense of self.

I specialize in working with anxiety, relationship challenges, sexuality/identity exploration, past/childhood trauma, and attachment healing, though I am here to support you with any topics you choose to bring to session. I view therapy primarily through an attachment-based and psychodynamic lens. I see the way our early experiences inform how we show up in relationships with others and ourselves. I use a feminist framework to validate how our sociocultural identities and political environment impact our wellness. I am trauma-informed, sex-positive and queer/gender-affirming.

Prior to becoming a therapist, I worked in a variety of social work settings with children and families. I facilitated evidence-based therapeutic interventions in a nonprofit setting for survivors/victims of sexual abuse. I was also a youth advocate and case manager for the Guardian ad Litem program in South Carolina, ensuring children in foster care had their needs met. I continue to work with a similar nonprofit in Philly and am sensitive to intergenerational trauma and traumatic stress caused by systems.

If you feel we would be a good fit, call or email (template included) to schedule a free 15-minute phone consultation. I have availability both in-person and virtually Monday - Friday and offer evening hours.
