About My Clients
LGBTQ, Transgender and gender expansive clients are my specialty and I have been working with this community for over a decade. As a queer person myself, I understand the struggle of coming out or finding your own place in the world. I enjoy working with people from 6th graders to adults who want to have the courage to be who they are. You may be struggling with coming out, exploring your gender identify, religious trauma, are autistic or have ADHD or are just looking for someone that "gets" you
My Background and Approach
Helping people live authentically is something that I have loved doing all my life. When a person discovers who they are that makes them the happiest through therapy, I feel like we have done good work together. My experience includes treating clients exploring and affirming their gender identity and sexuality as well as over twenty years of experience working with children and adolescents. I am passionate about and expertly trained in working with the LGBTQIA community, particularly people who are transgender and genderqueer. My clients say they like my compassionate, yet direct style. I will joke with you and geek out with my clients and share a love of music all while processing the very hard things with my clients. I am WPATH GEI certified member. I also support the model of informed consent when working with the transgender community. I am also a public speaker and educator on topics about the LGBTQIA community and gender identity and Author of The Gender Identity Journal.
My Personal Beliefs and Interests
In my personal beliefs, I support the rights of the LGBQT and transgender community. I volunteer my time as a board member of the Out Georgia Business Alliance, the LGBTQ Chamber of Commerce. I also believe that animals bring an immense amount of love and belonging in our lives and support animal rescue causes and am the loving owner of four rescue dogs and two cats. I have worked extensively with voter's rights and registration and in my past have run a food pantry. I am a secular therapist that is part of The Secular Therapist Network and I believe in freedom from religion, as well as freedom to have religion in their life.
