With kids, I get creative—and I mean genuinely on-the-floor creative. We might build something together (a young client and I recently made a mini greenhouse), jump on the trampoline, make art, or take our session outside for a walk. Play, imagination, and movement help children connect with their emotions and express them in ways that actually feel natural to them. With adults, that same creativity turns toward the deeper work: untangling hard emotions, or simply problem-solving the real stuff—how to function better, feel steadier, and move through life with a little more ease.

As a queer person, I do my best to create a space that welcomes open engagement, challenging conversations, and room for clients to explore their own feelings and experiences around identity when it's relevant. My aim is a space that encourages honest conversation, self-reflection, and learning—for my clients and for me.

In other news: I have an orange cat named George, who is remarkably good at getting herself into curious situations. I love plants and art and believe both have a real place in life and in therapy. When I have time, you'll find me gardening, drawing, doing crafts, and out hiking.
