- LMFT
I am a mental health therapist specializing in trauma, anxiety, sexual identity, and gender identity. I use innovative approaches, including the therapeutic use of video games, to engage and support clients. I believe the client-therapist relationship is the most important part of treatment and focus on building rapport intentionally. I’m passionate about using diverse modalities to support personalized growth, particularly for clients ages 15–30.
