I am passionate about diversity and intersectionality. I specialise in working with LGBTQAI+ people, neurodivergent people and BIPOC. I aim to provide a safe, inclusive, affirming and culturally appropriate space for processing, with a social justice lense that puts into perspective the individual and complex experiences of people outside the box
Rainbow Muse Clinic is a magical rainbow world that welcomes you for who you are and collaborates on your wellbeing. I have limited availability for new clients however Rainbow Muse Clinic has amazing art therapists and psychologists with availability.
