LMSW (They/Them) • Psychotherapist & Intake Assessor

AJ is here to provide the space needed to explore your inner self & what it means to be uniquely you. AJ is a LMSW with 5 years of experience in the field. They've worked with adults who struggle with trauma, depression, anxiety, & substance misuse. They've also worked in crisis intervention & harm reduction. AJ uses various clinical approaches, such as Internal Family Systems (IFS) techniques, Acceptance & Commitment Therapy (ACT), & somatic therapy.

AJ uses a trauma-informed lens to provide a safe environment for all emotions & experiences, aiding clients in finding their strengths & gently processing harmful thoughts/behaviors to live a life that feels true, respectful, & authentic. Healing is not a linear process, & having someone be present & gentle can help us feel safe enough to live bravely.

As a neurodiverse queer person with anxiety & depression, I understand how difficult it can be to navigate living in a way that is respectful & true to yourself in a world of constant change. My goal is to aid clients in finding what feels right in their bodies & using a combination of approaches unique to each individual.
