Seeking therapy is a vulnerable process. I will hold space for your vulnerabilities, honor your courage to seek help, and meet you with compassion. I vow to create a safe place for you to bring your whole self to therapy. I love working with both individuals & couples to cultivate safety in their bodies and relationships regardless of gender, weight, or size. I am a Queer and Trans affirming therapist, and I have experience with infertility support and queer family planning. Additionally, I welcome couples & welcomes both individuals and couples to explore their sexuality at all body sizes utilizing a fat empowerment approach.
