- LGBTQIA+ Affirming
We support clients with OCD, hair pulling, hoarding, skin picking, anxiety, and clients struggling with big emotions and relationships including clients with Borderline Personality Disorder. I have treated a large number of clients suffering from OCD, hair pulling, hoarding, skin picking, anxiety. OCD and anxiety related disorders and LGBTQ+ issues are my primary focuses in treatment.
I curate treatment to each client’s individual needs. Before developing any treatment plan, I complete a thorough assessment to gain a comprehensive understanding of my client’s presenting concerns, history, and goals. From there, I develop a structured treatment plan collaboratively with the client, ensuring they are an active participant in their own care. When co-occurring disorders are present, I integrate and sequence treatment thoughtfully, with an emphasis on gold-standard, evidence-based approaches tailored to the full clinical picture.
I attended the Philadelphia College of Osteopathic Medicine where I received my doctorate in Clinical Psychology in 2021. Since then my focus has been on supporting the LGBTQ+ community, offering gender affirming care, and treating OCD and anxiety related disorders in Philadelphia.
Our practice is queer owned and most of our clinicians are queer and/or trans.
I have 6 years of experience working with low SES patients facing health disparities. I also have experience in working with and providing training on working with LGBTQ+ patients across the lifespan, as well as gender minorities with racial intersectionalities.
