I approach counselling from a lens that is grounded in the continued practice of anti-racism, disability justice, queer theory, sex positivity, and that recognizes the systemic violence that has, and continues to, harm us and impact our experiences in the world, and inside ourselves. The main niche of folks that I have had the honour of working with over the years have been queer and trans folks, sex workers, disabled folks, non-traditional relationship networks, kink and bdsm communities, BIPOC folks, folks navigating complex trauma, and those living at the intersections of many of these identities.
You are the expert in your experiences, and I view my role as a person in solidarity and support, as well as an accomplice in your journey. My practice focuses on queer and trans communities, sex workers, and folks in non-traditional relationship networks.
I look forward to connecting and seeing if we are a good fit. Please fill out the contact form on my website to be in touch.
