About me
I am a queer therapist who specializes in LGBTQ+ matters, relationships, and general mental health concerns.
I am new to the Denver area, moving here from Cincinnati, OH. I have both my undergraduate and graduate degree is Social Work from the University of Cincinnati. I have experience working in community mental health with both adults and adolescents.
In my practice, I specialize in depression and anxiety, LGBTQ+-related issues, and relationships, utilizing evidence-based approaches like cognitive behavioral therapy, dialectical behavioral therapy, and trauma-informed care to help clients achieve their goals. My therapeutic philosophy is rooted in the belief that everyone has the potential for growth and healing. I am committed to providing a safe, non-judgmental space for you to explore your thoughts, feelings, and experiences.
