About Me

Truer than ever before, the world is full of suffering. Though it is also true that the world is full of healing and overcoming. I see the hope that brought you to this page. The hope in finding healing and growth through therapy.

​

It can be challenging to find a safe, culturally-sensitive, therapeutic space especially for those identifying as queer, transgender, and non-binary. You deserve to feel understood and supported. I am committed to creating and maintaining a safe and nonjudgmental space for people to explore their life experiences and strengths as well as cultivate a sense of self-compassion, self-trust, and empowerment. 

I am honored to be part of your journey. Through our work together, we will explore ways to overcome life’s inevitable obstacles, achieve goals, and find ways to thrive in the many faces of adversity.

Therapy should be a safe space allowing for reflection, growth, and self-expression without judgment. A space to work through problems and also learn self-compassion. To relate to your thoughts differently and create positive mental health habits to enhance your overall life satisfaction.

Gender Affirming Care

I am a gender-affirming, LGBTQ+ specialist in Illinois. I believe in an informed consent model of gender-affirming care. Currently our medical system relies on WPATH standards of care, putting therapists in a position of gatekeeping. In response, I provide no and low cost gender affirming letters. That is, until the system we live in adopts a more socially just model of gender-affirming care.
