Change can be difficult and overwhelming, but you are not alone. I'm so glad you are here taking this first step! Meaningful growth occurs in spaces where we feel both safe and brave, and my role is to cultivate that space for you. Common concerns that my clients are navigating include identity exploration, relationship conflicts, family issues, depression, recovery from trauma, polyamory and nonmonogamy, anxiety and panic, and neurodiversity. I specialize in working with queer and trans folks.
I also write letters of support for gender affirming surgery. I am currently accepting new clients for couples/relationship counseling.
My approach is trauma-informed, emotion-focused, and tailored to your unique lived experience. I aim to ground the therapeutic process in a decolonized approach. Using a systems lens and interpersonal process, I help my clients uncover the inherent wisdom at the intersection of mind and body.
You may be seeking a deeper understanding of yourself, coping with the impacts of systemic oppression, processing relational conflict, or navigating a major life change. You may be new to therapy or returning. Wherever you are and wherever you're going, I would be honored to accompany you on the journey. If you're feeling ready to get started, contact me!
