Are you struggling with your identities (queer, neurodivergent, non-monogamous, kinky)? Have you had past experiences within those identities/spaces that are holding you back from living life the way that you'd like? Is it impacting your trust in yourself and those around you? Maybe you feel stuck, insecure, overwhelmed or exhausted? Is re-entering the scene challenging because of late identification/diagnosis (neurodivergent, queer/trans)? Do you want to understand your place in the world? Are you hoping to find understanding, support and increased awareness of who you are, your needs/wants and how to communicate them?
I believe you should be heard, understood and supported in where you’re at. My hope is to provide a space where you feel comfortable being you. I offer client centered care that is collaborative and consent focused. I offer a neurodivergent, queer, and kink knowledgeable space, striving to provide a trauma informed, feminist, decolonization based practice.
Supporting you in discovering yourself and feeling secure in it is my passion. It is a privilege to support you in your mental health journey. I will support you in finding answers to who you are, where you wish to go and ways to let go of the past. To book a 15 minute meet and greet to assess fit please reach out via email or phone.
