About My Clients
My clients come from all walks of life—many express themselves creatively through art, dance, music & writing. I work affirmatively & sex-positively with LGBTQIA+ people exploring their intersectional identities, sexuality, gender & relationships (kink, poly, ENM). As a queer parent, I’m passionate about supporting LGBTQIA+ families.
My Background and Approach
Trained in Hakomi Mindful Somatic Psychotherapy as a level 1 practitioner and externship in Emotionally Focused Therapy (EFT). I received my master's in clinical psychology from Antioch University LA, specializing in LGBTQIA+ affirmative psychology. I approach therapy through a relational, psychodynamic lens that integrates feminist, narrative, and somatic therapies. With couples, I work through an attachment lens (EFT). I understand how vulnerable it can feel to open ourselves up in our relationships, including therapy, and I'm committed to meeting clients with warmth, openness, & genuine presence.
My Values as a Therapist
I believe that we heal and grow in relationships when we feel a sense of belonging, connection, & presence without judgment. The purpose of therapy is not to fix you—when we allow the unfolding of emotional experiences, it can lead us to the emergence of a deeper understanding of yourself, self-acceptance, authenticity, & connecting to the power and participation you have in relationships. I'm honored to support clients longing for a deeper embodied presence, authentic curiosity, & compassionate understanding of themselves. I strive to co-create an attuned, safe, collaborative space by acknowledging you as the expert in your life.
