How can I help you become more you?

Moms: I can help you let go of what is not working and create deep and meaningful relationships with your teens and young adults.

Teens/Young Adults: I can help you find who you are, have been and want to be.

My Approach

I am a Clinical Mental Health Counseling Associate (CHMC) with over 30 years of experience working with students and families grades 6-12. For 26 of those years, I worked alongside twice-exceptional, neurodivergent, LGBTQIA+, and disenfranchised youth in a public alternative high school: students whose lateral wisdom and lived complexity consistently challenged and expanded my practice and being. I specialize in neurodivergent populations, LGBTQIA+, chronic illness, school refusal, and the intersection of identity, executive functioning, joy, creativity, and mental health for all ages. My approach draws on person-centered, constructivist methods, and I am currently building this private practice alongside part-time work in education

My process is simple and thoughtful.

    FOUNDER, Therapist

    My ideal client is someone who doesn't fit neatly into one or two identity boxes and feels limited by (and yet maybe drawn to?) the concept of labels.

  • A patch of wild grass and plants with small white daisies that have yellow centers.

    Wild Flowers

    Always part of the team somehow

  • Close-up of a gray fabric surface with three small crocheted objects, two green and one gray, resembling yarn pieces or small toys.

    Homemade fidgets

    They have clips in them that snap. Very satisfying. Ask me to make you one and send it to you in the mail.

  • You are the most patient, compassionate, awesome teacher (and honestly person) I've ever met. Thank you for being an inspiring, helpful adult in my life.
