Why I do what I do
I’ve done all kinds of social work, but I find being a therapist deeply fulfilling. I’ve done my own work in therapy, and I have an appreciation of the process from the perspective of both client and clinician.
As someone who grew up neurodivergent and queer in the South, I know what it’s like to feel like you don’t fit in. And I know what it’s like to feel like there’s nowhere you can really be yourself and be accepted. I’m honored to now be able to offer a safe space for clients to explore who they are and what they want.
Who I work with
I work with individuals and couples who are navigating all the transitions and existential questions that come around in midlife. Clients come to me when they have worked hard to build the life they want, but aren’t able to enjoy it. Things look great on paper, but on the inside my clients are deeply unhappy or anxious.
My practice is a welcome space for LGBTQ+ and neurodivergent folks. If you’re a part of these communities, you’ll find sessions with me a safe, affirming space. As a social worker, a central pillar of my practice is anti-racism, diversity, equity, and inclusion, and I work through an anti-oppressive, justice-oriented lens.
