About My Clients
Are you trying to conceive, pregnant, postpartum or parenting? Are you over the gendered labels the baby-making and child-rearing industry puts on our families? I see you. I've been there. Paying the extra "queer tax" for daily life can be so overwhelming, and sometimes you just need someone who GETS IT. Therapy can help detangle the jumble of thoughts and feelings in your mind and body and teach you skills to combat them in the moment. I look forward to walking together on the healing journey.
My Background and Approach
I believe in creating a safe, healing space for you (and your family, biological or chosen) to sit with and feel all the feels associated with your family expanding process and/or parenting. My approach is relational and rooted in self-compassion, as well as the belief that what we need is here. Family expansion (especially queer family expansion!), parenting and adulting is really beautiful, exhausting, joyful and draining all at the same time. Being a queer family right now is an incredible act of resistance and also so very hard. Finding, celebrating and being your true authentic self is an act of courage. I believe the world needs you as you are: beautiful, messy and powerful.
My Personal Beliefs and Interests
Here’s a bit more about me. My partner (ze/zem) and I tried to conceive for two years before my partner became pregnant. We hated all the binary coded nonsense that came with pregnancy, labor and delivery and postpartum. That experience changed my clinical interest and focus to this work. We love our little one (born spring 2025!) and love our beautiful family, complete with three fur-babies (cats). When I’m not working out my arms lifting my child up and down, you can find me walking outside, cooking, listening to a queer YA romance audiobook, or dabbling in fiber arts. If any of this resonates with you, please reach out to me for an intro call.
