About My Clients

I help guide adults and adolescents who are queer, transgender, gender nonconforming, nonbinary, LGBTQ+, BIPOC, kinky/polyamorous/consensually non-monogamous to explore their thoughts and behaviors in a supportive environment that is free from judgment or stigma. I have special interests/experience working with navigating gender, sexuality, and identity.

My Background and Approach

I empower individuals, especially LGBTQ+, BIPOC, and those navigating gender/sexuality, using a client-centered, strength-based approach. My eclectic modalities include acceptance, mindfulness, somatic, and harm-reduction methods. I bring a relational, compassionate, and humorous approach. Each person is an expert in their own lived experience. Let's create a therapeutic experience that leaves you centered, heard, and fulfilled.

My Personal Beliefs and Interests

With a previous eight-year career in advertising, I understand corporate burnout. My pivot to social work stems from reflection on my values. Let's embark on a healing journey together.
