I am ready to help you! No matter what you are going through, I know that if we can talk about it, we can work it out! I am ready to help you get the tools you need to get back on your feet. I want to get to know you as a person, not just your symptoms, and to help you get back to the things that bring you joy. I am proudly inclusive, queer-friendly, and sex-positive.
I specialize in trauma-informed practise, and working with people who have experienced abuse and/or trauma. If there's a memory or an experience that's been troubling you, we can work on together. I am also glad to work with people who aren't sure if what they've experienced is a trauma, or just have something they want to talk about!
Send me a message, and I'll get back to you within the day! Sliding scale pricing is available upon request (no documentation necessary), and no waitlist! Can't wait to hear from you!
