Individual Therapy
In-Person and Telehealth

You don't have to continue suffering. There is hope for positive change. I want to create a safe space for you to heal from your past, get practical coping skills, find new ways of thinking and behaving, and feel better. Counseling can improve your mood, sense of well-being, relationships, and life satisfaction.

I identify as a cisgender heterosexual in a monogamous marriage, but please don't hold that against me. I am an affirming advocate for all folxs and types of relationships. I have received training from the Society for Sexual, Affectional, Intersex, and Gender Expansive Identities (SAIGE) and the World Professional Association of Transgender Health (WPATH).

Spiritual Trauma,  Deconstructing Theology, Religious Recovering, Reconstructing Spirituality

If you have experienced religion or spirituality in a hurtful or abusive way, there is hope for healing and freedom. I was raised as a conservative evangelical and was a Family Pastor in a charismatic movement.  It is my honor to help others find healing and reclaim their unique spirituality
