About My Clients

My clients are often people in relationships, families, or collectives who find themselves inside negative patterns and wish to break out. My goal is to help these people regain their power and confidence in an alienating world. I help people work through issues that may include gender identity, intergenerational trauma, and sexual challenges. I also work with people who are facing conflicts such as transphobia, fatphobia, racism, and disability.

My Background and Approach

My approach to helping people often involves a consent-based collaborative method. This means that with the client's consent, I offer an interpretation of the issues that they're facing and how it might be affecting them. I then offer my clients a chance to respond to this interpretation, which turns into a useful dialog. During sessions, I invite people to be playful with me, which helps me disarm the intensity of the issues that they're facing. My objective with this approach is to make it safe for clients to move past avoidance of the unfamiliar. By confronting what is unknown, clients learn who they are in the world and what they want to be. Based on the individual clients, I may attempt different techniques such as practicing secure attachment styles or reparenting. In the end, my approach to family and couples therapy is holistic. I use several methods to help clients expose and confront the issues that are holding them back.

My Personal Beliefs and Interests

People don’t exist in a vacuum. Our psychological injuries are relationship-based – we get hurt by the people we live with and love, and those conflicts can cause us to hurt others in turn. This can cause you to feel stuck, unconsciously repeating negative patterns. Because people don't exist in a vacuum, the individualistic nature of society doesn't just make it more difficult for people to seek therapy when they need it — It also makes therapy itself more difficult. When you see just a single perspective, it's harder to know how to treat people because you don't know how your client is affecting the people around them. This is why I find family and couples therapy so rewarding. It's satisfying to help repair relationships, but it's also very helpful to have a broader context in which to understand the people you're working with. This greatly increases the chance of a successful therapeutic relationship.
