I provide highly trained and specialized care LGBTQIA+, Transgender, Gender expansive and Neuro diverse populations throughout Arizona and Colorado.

*

I help the LGBTQIA+, Neurodiverse, and Faith transition populations work through their current concerns and come to grow into their best thriving lives.

*

Over the years I have come to work with hundreds of the loveliest Neurodiverse, queer folks, and post Mormons. These identities intersect a lot.

*

That doesn’t make me an expert on everyone’s lived experience but that is what drives me to be passionate about being the best therapist I can to these specific and wonderfully unique communities.

*

I partner through many of the pains and joys with folks in these communities both in my personal life and my professional one.

*

I partner with my clients in ways that help individuals come into identities that fit best for them and helps them grow to live fulfilling, meaningful lives in their personal identities.

*

When I’m not in the therapy room I love volunteering with animal rescues. I love being in nature and hiking. I enjoy spoiling my dogs and cuddling them on the couch with a good comedy show or podcast.

*

I’m looking forward to helping you achieve your thriving life.
