About My Clients

I specialize in supporting LGBTQIA+ individuals, particularly those exploring their identities and navigating trauma in a cisheteronormative world. My ideal clients seek a safe, affirming space to process experiences and build emotional regulation skills. I also work with those in kink, ENM/polyamory, and SW communities, offering tailored, DBT-based support through a holistic, anti-oppressive lens.

My Background and Approach

With a focus on anti-oppressive, holistic therapy, I specialize in supporting LGBTQIA+ individuals navigating trauma, identity exploration, and the challenges of living in a cisheteronormative world. I use Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) to help clients regulate emotions, improve relationships, and manage stress. My experience with kink, consensual non-monogamy (ENM/polyamory), and SW communities allows me to offer specialized support for those in these spaces. I provide a safe, affirming environment where clients can explore their gender, sexuality, and relationships, empowering them to take the lead in their healing.

My Personal Beliefs and Interests

I am deeply committed to advocating for social justice and supporting marginalized communities, especially the LGBTQIA+ community. I believe in creating spaces that are anti-oppressive and empowering, where individuals can heal and thrive without fear of judgment. I am an ally to those navigating kink, consensual non-monogamy, and SW communities, and I stand in solidarity with movements like Black Lives Matter and the fight for gender and sexual equity. Outside of my practice, I support initiatives focused on mental health, inclusivity, and human rights. My work is driven by a belief in collective healing and self-empowerment.
