Hello! My name is Libby, and I’m a Limited Licensed Master of Social Work providing therapy for adult individuals and couples. I work with a wide range of clients and concerns, but my passions include sexual wellness, queer support, disability advocacy, neurodivergence, and anxiety.
My approach to therapy is collaborative, affirming, and strengths-based. It is rooted in the belief that healing is most powerful when clients can develop a trusting relationship with the therapist, allowing them to feel open and safe to be their most raw selves. Together, we will not build a new you, but rather unearth the parts of you that have been waiting for you to come home.
I hold a Master of Social Work from the University of Michigan and a Bachelor of Arts in Theatre and Sexuality Studies from the University of Kentucky. As a queer autistic person of color, I deeply value the role that lived experience and shared identities can play in strengthening
therapeutic rapport and enhancing the effectiveness of therapy. However, I work with clients from all walks of life and also value the power of connection built through diverse experience. I strive to create a space that honors complexity, curiosity, and authenticity, where clients are encouraged to bring their full selves into the room.
In my work, I am committed to supporting clients in exploring identity, relationships, pleasure, and mental health without shame or judgment. Whether you are navigating anxiety, unlearning shame, seeking support around neurodivergence or disability, or working to build more fulfilling relationships with yourself or others, I am honored to walk alongside you.
