About My Clients

I have a particular interest in working with concerns related to queer, transgender, and neurodiverse identities. I’m kink and polyamory affirming, with both clinical and lived experience in these areas. I also have experience working with trauma and PTSD.

My Background and Approach

I believe that we hold within us the wisdom we need to make the progress we are looking for. At the same time, I recognize there are often patterns we can get stuck in. Additionally, the multiple systems of oppression we must navigate present considerable barriers to our goals and well-being. I view myself as a guide on your journey to realizing your inner wisdom and strength. I do this through therapy that pulls from the theories of liberation psychology, Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, feminist therapy, and attachment theory. We will create a collaborative plan together to help you address your main concerns, and will work together throughout the therapy process to ensure it's working for you.

My Personal Beliefs and Interests

As a member of the LGBTQ+ community, I am committed to working towards liberation for all oppressed and marginalized identities. I value intersectionality in my approach and work hard to identify and address any internalized systems of oppression I hold within myself.
