Are you struggling with overwhelm, gender identity questions, stuckness, shame, or patterns that don’t feel good? I am a trans, queer associate clinical social worker providing individual telehealth therapy to adults living in California. I partner with folks in navigating anxiety, PTSD, substance use, gender alignment, and other areas of concern. I help folks feel more at home in their body and aligned with their authentic self. I tend to connect most effectively with folks who are trans, queer, kinky, helping professionals, students, recent graduates, neurodivergent, artists, witchy, and/or spiritually inclined.
I offer relational psychotherapy that incorporates somatic practices, mindfulness, parts work, creative expression, and harm reduction. Using your strengths and honoring your boundaries, we will practice nonjudgmentally noticing and responding to what’s going on for you.
I find joy and purpose in helping others remember that nothing is wrong with them, and a lot is wrong with the oppressive systems that we live in. I also enjoy exploring this concept with clients: All parts of us (even shame) have a story, want what’s best for us, need care, and have the capacity to shift and heal.
