About My Clients
My clients are often thoughtful individuals who have big feelings about how to navigate the world. They could be struggling with the relationship to their body or experiencing big life changes. In therapy, it is common for people to be navigating how to find meaningful connections with themselves, the world, and the people around them. The clients I work with are trying to find harmony within all the different parts of themselves. I am here to support and celebrate all of who you are.
My Background and Approach
I think it is so cool that you are exploring therapy. What a way to advocate for yourself! Therapy is a big deal and a relationship that takes time to grow. I do not take that lightly. I use radical acceptance and radical gratitude to meet you exactly where you are. My therapy practice aims to be trauma-informed, feminist, relational, empathetic, and rooted in an internal family system (IFS) perspective. These approaches mean the foundation of our work is the relationship we build. I believe in compassionate curiosity and thoughtful questions to support you through life's various struggles. The list below explains common topics or issues people might bring to therapy with me: Body Image Self Esteem Depression Anxiety Sex Pleasure Grief Identity development (sexual orientation, gender identity, etc) Relationships (family, partner (s), etc) Stress Lack of coping skills Codependency
My Personal Beliefs and Interests
I am a passionate person and believe that the political is personal. In therapy with me, social justice issues, and the impact of oppressive systems are welcome to be a part of our conversation. I have 8 years of experience working with the queer and trans community by way of sexual health and education, and reproductive justice. I bring a sex-positive approach to all my work and welcome the conversation of sexuality and desire into our work together. Some of my past work includes: Birth doula Abortion doula Queer and trans* healthcare Sexual and Reproductive Healthcare and education Restorative Justice Racial identity circles and facilitation Community mental health
