At the heart of my psychotherapy practice is a commitment to holding a transformative space which helps you move into more free ways of living. I offer a collaborative, anti-oppressive, and difference-affirmative approach which meets you where you are, and centers your empowerment, needs, and desires - to help you go beyond merely coping, towards thriving. I bring over 6 years of experience working in mental health roles as a therapist, meditation teacher, advisor, organizer and advocate, working with a large variety of diverse clients holding all kinds of issues.
I believe therapy can serve as a powerful space for exploring, unraveling, and changing our relationship to what keeps us stuck, enabling us bring about profound positive change. I draw on an integrative blend of modalities including psychodynamic, person-centered, liberation psychology, mindfulness, and queer therapies.
My work is grounded in anti-oppressive, relational, and liberatory ethics: I refuse models of 'mental health' which reduce people to labels, pathologize their resistance and resilience, or subject them to various forms of state and social oppression. Instead, I aim to help you cultivate ways of thinking, being, and relating which deeply empower you.
