LGBTQIA+ Affirming Counseling & Play Therapy
My Offerings
Play Therapy
Play is how children learn and express themselves. For children 10 and under I offer play therapy that includes monthly sessions with parents to help encourage growth outside of the therapy room.
Expressive Arts Therapy
For those who find it difficult to talk or want more body based options for therapy, I offer expressive arts and sand tray therapy. These modalities help scratch a different part of our brains and allow for a multifaceted approach to healing.
Individual Counseling
Sometimes you just need somebody to hear you out without judgement. I offer talk therapy for preteens, teens, and young adults looking to explore their identity, cope with oppression, or just understand themselves better.
Group Counseling
I love groups because they can provide a different connection experience than just individual counseling. In the past I have run groups for social skills, sexual assault healing, and even used Dungeons & Dragons therapeutically!

About Me
I am currently practicing out of Gaia Counseling in Decatur, GA. Click here to visit my page on the Gaia website.
My door is wide open to anyone in the LGBTQIA+ community, neurodivergent folks, polyamorous individuals and families, and anyone doing the brave work of exploring their identity more deeply.
In my counseling practice, I incorporate Adlerian, Person-Centered, Feminist, trauma-informed, and antiracist perspectives. Together we can explore topics of anxiety, depression, suicidality, gender and sexuality exploration, trauma healing, neurodivergence, coping with the weight of oppression, and nurturing spirituality.
On a personal note, I'm a queer Jewish nonbinary woman who's big on crafting, gardening, reading sci-fi and fantasy, playing Dungeons & Dragons, and thrifting. I received my master's in Clinical Rehabilitation Counseling from Georgia State University and I've worked in schools and community mental health settings.
I look forward to walking alongside you on your self growth journey.
