You know you want therapy, but you’re nervous about choosing a therapist. What if you end up with someone you have to educate about your sexual orientation or relationship structure? Or someone who doesn’t understand your gender identity or respect your pronouns? What if your therapist is dismissive of how oppression has impacted your mental health, or can’t handle the trauma you’ve been through? If you've had these worries as you look for a therapist, I might be the one for you. The people whose lives don’t fit neatly into society’s boxes aren’t just my “clinical interest” – they’re my community.
I’ve built a career out of understanding and helping people who are queer, transgender/gender non-conforming, ethically non-monogamous, kinky, and otherwise living truths that are somehow outside the norm. I know how living in a world that often feels like it doesn’t value or respect you can lead to anxiety, depression, and trauma.
Things don't have to be this hard. Together, we can figure out ways for you to feel better. I can help you learn to manage difficult emotions, resolve past trauma, build resilience, and move toward the things that matter to you most. Please contact me or visit my website to learn more or to schedule an appointment. Emails receive the fastest response.

Erin is an incredibly skilled clinician. I often consult with her regarding issues such as sex, relationships (including poly/ ENM), kink, and BDSM. Her approach is a blend of safe, personable, and trauma and social-justice informed. Highly recommend!
