Let's Connect (365) 657-5892

Let's gently explore what makes you, you and get to know your unique magic and what you're looking for in life. I work with individuals, couples/dyads and groups around self exploration, life transitions, feeling stuck, relationship issues (including open relationships & polyamory), friendship/peer issues, communication, creativity, self esteem, grief, imposter syndrome, depression, motivation, self compassion, stress, anxiety, trauma, finding balance & more.

Working in art, festival, nightlife, queer and harm reduction spaces since 2004, I support people who use substances for self-exploration or those struggling with their use. I work from a queer and trans-embracing, neurodivergence affirming & anti-oppressive framework, and strive to be actively anti-racist and to be aware of systemic privileges I hold.

I invite you to tell me what is bringing you to therapy and I’ll get back to you shortly to set up a free consultation call. look forward to working with you - You don't have to do it alone!
