Who I Am

Since I was a small child, I have been enthralled by the stories we tell to make sense of ourselves, our lives and our relationships with others. I quickly developed an avid taste for film, literature and music, captivated by the ways in which we not only make meaning in our lives, but in how we creatively communicate that to the world.

Prior to working in mental health I crafted stories for a variety of digital media and televised outlets. I spent my days writing, researching and interviewing people who told stories for a living – actors, directors, filmmakers, animators, writers, musicians, artists. This process left an indelible mark on me and brought me closer to my lifelong calling: to help others heal through stories – those that have oppressed us, those that empower us, those that heal.

Today I am an ethical humanist, sex-positive, LGBTQIA-affirmative therapist, writer, and single mother. I welcome all relationship structures and recognize the intersecting identities of all my clients. I welcome those who yearn to get to the bottom of what they are up against, and to build a lasting tool set of strategies to live an optimal, meaningful life.
