Therapist

You’re doing your best, and yet things aren’t landing the way you hoped. You put in the effort and care deeply, but something feels off, like your intentions don’t translate into the outcomes you want. You might find yourself asking, “What am I missing?” That gap can feel frustrating, confusing, and isolating. I work with clients who often feel misunderstood, overwhelmed, or unsure of how to show up as their full, authentic selves. Many are navigating chronic or invisible illness, neurodivergence, emotional regulation challenges, identity shifts, relationship stress, or difficulties at work or school.

I am a queer-identified, sex-positive psychologist experienced in working with a spectrum of sexual orientations, identities, and relationships. I help individuals and couples interested in discussing kink and consensual non-monogamy.


I also specialize in treating OCD (including "Pure O"), specific phobias, social anxiety, and relationship anxiety. My approach combines evidence-based exposure therapy to help reduce symptoms and break patterns of avoidance with deeper exploratory work aimed at understanding the underlying fears, beliefs, and experiences that contribute to anxiety. By addressing both the symptoms and their roots, I help clients create lasting change and greater freedom in their lives.


For individuals with OCD, I offer both Exposure and Response Prevention (ERP) and Inference-Based Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (I-CBT). If ERP doesn't feel like the right fit for you, or if you're interested in an alternative approach, I-CBT can be an effective treatment that targets the reasoning processes underlying obsessive doubt.


I currently accept insurance for group therapy only and have two OCD-focused groups with openings available.
