Education
Antioch University Los Angeles, Master of Arts, LGBTQIA+ Affirmative Psychotherapy, 2025
Work HistoryMy path into this work has always been grounded in advocacy, curiosity, and a deep belief that people deserve therapy where they don’t have to translate themselves. I earned my MA in Clinical Psychology from Antioch University Los Angeles, where I specialized in LGBTQIA+ Affirmative Psychotherapy. That program shaped how I practice today: therapy that is collaborative, culturally responsive, trauma-informed, and unflinchingly affirming of gender, sexuality, and relationship diversity. During my training, I completed two intensive residencies that really formed the backbone of my specialties. At a domestic violence clinic, I worked with individuals, couples, and families—many of whom were LGBTQIA+ survivors of domestic violence, intimate partner violence, and sexual assault. That’s where I deepened my work in trauma recovery and sex therapy, especially in helping people reclaim agency, pleasure, and safety in their bodies and relationships after harm. I also ran three therapy groups and became actively involved in the LGBTQIA+ division there, which strengthened my commitment to building affirming systems—not just offering affirming words. My second residency was at a free therapy clinic serving low-income communities in greater Los Angeles, with a strong focus on LGBTQIA+ youth. That experience sharpened my understanding of systemic stress, minority stress, and the realities of surviving in environments that aren’t always safe or supportive. It was also there that I began serving as a resident mental health support for film and television productions. Supporting creatives under public scrutiny led me to develop a reputation for working at the intersection of celebrity culture, parasocial dynamics, and mental health. If you’ve ever felt overwhelmed by fandom spaces, social media pressure, or the strange intensity of being perceived—professionally or personally—that’s terrain I know well. Currently, I work with two incredibly affirming private practices where I focus on LGBTQIA+ populations, co-transitioning couples and partners, sex therapy, narrative therapy, and supporting clients navigating depression and anxiety. Across all of it, my aim is consistent: to help you build lifelong tools—not just short-term coping—so your mental health feels less like crisis management and more like self-authorship. In every setting I’ve worked, the throughline has been this: you deserve therapy that sees the full context of your identity, honors your resilience, and helps you move from surviving to actually living.
