Welcome! I specialize in working with folx who are LGBTQA+ and who are struggling with anxiety, depression and/or a history of trauma. I love supporting those who are either making the transition from monogamy to non-monogamy or need support in their existing CMN relationships. I'm also kink and BDSM competent and enjoy helping others heal shame and foster empowerment in their unique sexuality. I think of psychotherapy as a necessary form of social activism toward a larger goal of equity for people of all races, genders, sexual/relational orientations, levels of ability, and socioeconomic backgrounds.
I have been practicing client-centered, depth, narrative, and somatic psychotherapy for ten years and have a master's degree in clinical psychology, with a concentration in community mental health, from the California Institute of Integral Studies. My passion is working with LGBTQA+ folx who need support navigating consensual non-monogamy.
I have a background in visual art, improv, and theater, all of which led me to become a psychotherapist and all of which inform my work in every way. I believe with a bit of curiosity and a lot of creativity you can accomplish big goals and make big dreams a reality.
