As a certified therapist with a Bachelor’s degree and over two years of experience, I specialize in LGBTQ+ affirmative care, with a particular focus on the bisexual community. My own journey as a queer person raised in a conservative environment fuels my commitment to providing a safe, non-judgmental space for individuals, couples, and families to explore their authentic selves. I utilize an integrative approach, incorporating Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, and Emotionally Focused Therapy, with a keen awareness of intersectionality, including race and spirituality. In my practice, I empower clients to navigate coming-out processes, manage minority stress, and build resilience against societal challenges. Whether I’m supporting a transgender adolescent, a same-sex couple healing from infidelity, or guiding an older gay man through grief, I prioritize personal empowerment and evidence-based strategies tailored to each individual’s unique story. In addition to one-on-one therapy, I facilitate support groups for LGBTQ+ parents and conduct workshops on inclusive practices within organizations. I advocate for equitable mental health access and stay informed on emerging topics relevant to our community. My mission is to reduce mental health disparities and foster environments in which every person is seen, valued, and celebrated. In every session, I offer empathy, cultural humility, and genuine hope for healing and growth, whether we meet in person or online.
