As a therapist with a focus on developmental trauma and queer and transgender adults and adolescents, I believe that early life experiences and ongoing structural contexts immensely inform our relationship to ourselves and each other. I hold this framework alongside a background in somatic psychotherapy, which considers the ways our nervous systems relate to emotions and experiences. There is no one way to relate to the past, embody our feelings, or find healing. In therapy, we find a way for you together. My role is to hold consistent curiosity, rigor, and care throughout your self-discovery.
I frequently work with those who are navigating complex trauma (CPTSD) symptoms or who struggle with perfectionism, shame, dissociation, and self-worth. I welcome themes related to belonging, grief, queer/trans community dynamics, non-monogamy, BDSM/kink, and chronic illness. I offer individual as well as relationship or couples therapy.
I am invested in exploring the forces that have shaped you, the ways you are feeling (or struggling to feel) now, and how you make sense of your life overall. Inquiry like this relies on trust, which builds at your pace. Please reach out for a consultation to see if working together feels like the right fit.

I approach therapy from psychoanalytic, relational, and somatic frameworks with an anti-oppression lens. I have a focus on complex/developmental trauma and am interested in understanding how early environments and experiences contribute to the formation of the self.
