I believe that the stories we tell about ourselves shape our experiences and relationships with ourselves and others. Change and growth are possible when we are able to move toward stories that are more kind, gentle, and attend to our strengths. Whether you are feeling stuck or sad, experiencing anxiety, recovering from a trauma or loss, or are looking to strengthen your relationship with others (or with yourself!), I will support you as you share your story. Together, we will work to establish a safe, nonjudgmental space to explore your emotions, shed light on your fears, practice new skills and build on your strengths. I see my role as listening closely, asking questions, and supporting you as you move toward the life you want for yourself.
My social work practice is informed by anti-oppressive and social justice frameworks. It is important to me to create space in my practice for those who hold marginalized identities, including people who identify as queer or trans, people in non-monogamous or poly relationships, and anyone who has experienced oppression or struggle.
I provide brief and long-term individual psychotherapy through Thomas Jefferson University’s Department of Psychiatry and Human Behavior. I am considered an in-network provider through Jefferson with many insurance plans. If you are interested in working with me for psychotherapy, please contact the practice directly at (215)955-8420 regarding availability, rates, and insurance.

Letters of Support for Gender-affirming Surgery
I provide assessments and letters of support for individuals seeking gender-affirming surgery utilizing an informed consent model. I provide letters of support for ongoing therapy clients through my practice at Thomas Jefferson University’s Department of Psychiatry and Human Behavior. I also provide letters of support for clients who are not working with me for ongoing therapy through my private practice. I am typically able to write a letter of support following one appointment. This service is available via telemedicine for individuals in Pennsylvania or New Jersey. I utilize a sliding fee scale for this service. I am committed to reducing barriers to care for trans, nonbinary, and gender nonconforming people, and provide pro bono letters if needed. If you are interested in an evaluation and letter for gender-affirming surgery, please contact me directly for more information and availability.
Supervision, Consultation, and Training
I provide clinical supervision, consultation, and training for professionals and organizations related to work with trans, nonbinary, and LGBTQIA+ communities, as well as harm reduction and anti-oppressive approaches to social work practice. I provide clinical supervision to Licensed Social Workers in Pennsylvania who are pursuing hours for their clinical licensure, and am available for both brief and ongoing consultation for clinicians and other providers. Please contact me directly for more information.
