I am guided by the values of radical empathy and compassion. I believe that it is in community that we come to understand ourselves and the unhelpful patterns that hold us back and keep us stuck. This is why I am convinced that creating a safe enough space for you to grow into your own knowing of what a positive change could be—as defined by you—requires an authentic, collaborative, and honest therapeutic relationship. While I bring formal education, field experience, and my own lived experience to our work together, in the end, you are the expert on your life.
As a kinky, polyamorous, Neurodivergent/Mad, queer person. I believe in taking a harm-reduction and anti-carceral approach that leans into your self-identified values to help you move through your life and struggles. This approach allows you to mitigate as much harm as possible while leaning into your self-defined progress, joy, and maintain your autonomy.
Reach out if you want a space to bring the fullness of yourself, including your strengths, your struggles, and—especially—your shameful parts. Lets work together to cultivate a space you can enter without fear of judgment, to help you build a sustainable relationship with yourself and your coping strategies.
