About My Clients
I welcome clients who are looking for something beyond traditional talk therapy. I work with individuals, couples, and relationships of all configurations, including poly, CNM, open, and monogamous, as well as folx navigating difficult experiences, trauma, loss, burnout, and existential dread. As a queer, non-binary/gender-expansive human, I am passionate about serving the LGBTQIA2S+ community. Additionally, I have a specialized background supporting pregnant people and new parents.
My Background and Approach
I am dedicated to a trauma-informed, person-centered, compassionate therapeutic approach. With a focus on strengths, attachment, mindfulness, and somatics, I incorporate therapeutic modalities such as Somatic Experiencing, parts work, narrative therapy, and expressive arts, tailoring interventions to individual and relational needs. I offer presence, respectful reflection, and unconditional acceptance, with the intent of reducing shame and supporting exploration. I believe most people long to be seen and witnessed, just as they are, and that change and growth organically arise within the relative safety of relationships. I value self-inquiry, collaborative learning, and deconstructing power dynamics. This means I prioritize mutual consent as an ongoing part of the therapeutic relationship. I trust you as the expert on your life.
My Personal Beliefs and Interests
Many "pathologies" are natural responses to individual, relational, and systemic trauma, and I understand that mental health care in the United States has caused much harm, especially to marginalized populations. I work from an anti-oppressive stance and welcome exploring identity, history, privileges, and oppressions. I am a white, queer and genderqueer, AFAB, neurodivergent human, living with invisible disabilities, in a straight-sized, mostly able body.
