About My Clients
My clients come from all walks of life. I work with LGBTQIA+ and all gender and sexual identities. I work with a wide range of relationships and families including multi-partner, non-monogamous, and couples. I am Poly and kink friendly as well as sex/sex work positive. My clients can come to me with difficult situations, a life transition, a relationship, feeling emotional pain, finding thoughts problematic or are living with a frustrating behavior pattern.
My Background and Approach
I work from an attachment and work relationally to clarify, reflect upon, and understand life. There is healing through relating and we will explore your emotions, thoughts, motivations, and expectations to make something come alive here and now. We will promote self-awareness and change, both subtle and profound, through meaningful dialogue. I have been working in the field for over ten years with mental health, relationships, trauma, and substance abuse. I describe my therapeutic style as Psychodynamic in concert with Existential and Gestalt work. I also incorporate into my style systems, social justice, and trauma focus. I have worked with adults, children, couples/units, and families. I have worked in inpatient, outpatient, community, and medical settings. I work with people and partners of those in the entertainment industry. I strive to make a safe and comfortable space where we can talk about anything and everything. I am licensed in mental health and substance use.
My Personal Beliefs and Interests
As a member of the Queer community, I work to offer therapy for individuals, couples, marginalized relationships, trauma, and more with an empathic, non-judgmental, social justice minded stance to help my clients be more satisfied with their lives and selves. My office is not a place to worry about making sense or having all the answers. You can be yourself in whatever way that looks like. I will also help foster a safe and secure place to deal with your hurt, trauma, memories, and things you may be avoiding in your day-to-day life. Change can begin with identifying feelings, the impulse, building insight, connecting to experience, or practicing new skills and behaviors. We will explore what works best for you. During our work together we will use the therapeutic relationship as a tool. We will discuss the therapy and how this can work outside of the office in your other relationships and interactions with people.
