About My Clients

My clients are folks who embody or are exploring expansive gender and sexual identities, as well as non-traditional relationship structures. I am openly a non-monogamous, non-binary, and queer therapist and many of my clients report that they want to work with someone who has shared lived experience.

My Background and Approach

I am knowledgeable in providing support to the LGBTQIA+ community, blended families, and to non monogamous, poly and open relationships. My offerings support and encourage expansiveness beyond all binaries and my intention is to create a space along with you that feels welcoming of all parts of you. I use an eclectic framework that keeps you and your self-knowledge at the center of our work and draws on Attachment-based tools and skills, such as Emotionally Focused Therapy for Individuals and Couples, and the Developmental Model.

My Personal Beliefs and Interests

I am passionate about helping folks navigate change who may not have had safe and supportive spaces available to them in the past. When faced with life and relationship transitions, the space between what was and what will be can feel overwhelming and challenging, My philosophy is that this space between can also offer opportunities for healing, growth and connection.
