About

There is a stubborn myth that a therapist's job is to nod quietly and give nothing back. I disagree. My job is to be a real, engaged person in the room with you. Before private practice, I spent years in nonprofit work and watched good systems grind good people down. A racing mind that will not let you rest is one thing I know how to help with, and there are real ways through it. Most of my female clients come to me tired of shrinking themselves to keep the peace. I am gender expansive, and my clients tell me that living outside tidy boxes gives me a useful kind of sight. That perspective belongs to my clients as much as it does to me. I am steady, plain in my speech, and really on your side. We will name hard things without drama and change the ones that can be changed. If that appeals to you, reach out and say hello.
