I work with individuals and with non-traditional relationships including polyamory, ethical non-monogamy and I have over 20 years of experience serving the QUILTBAG (queer or questioning, undecided, intersex, lesbian, trans, bisexual, asexual or allied, gay or gender diverse). I don't name issues and disorders because labels are important to the people who pay the bills. Help, Support, and Knowledge from a person willing to stand with you when life is becoming hard and solutions aren't easy to see are more important then any diagnostic name or code for what ails you.

It is important to remember that counseling is an art as well as a science and that it is part of a worldwide, centuries-old helping/healing tradition. I work by fostering changes, working with the unique strengths of the individuals and teaching the skills to apply them to resolve their unique challenges.

Currently the demand for services is rapidly outpacing the supply of mental health professionals, but I invite you to reach out for the help you need to resolve the suffering or disharmony that brought you to search these pages.
