Are you constantly disconnected from your body? Do you feel like you are on auto-pilot? I specialize in working with queer and trans adolescents and adults navigating identity, life transitions, and trauma. My somatic approach helps you connect with your body’s wisdom to support healing and presence. In our work together, I focus on creating safety, trust, and connection—foundations that make lasting change possible. My practice blends lived experience and clinical expertise to offer relational, affirming, and evidence-based care.
I help queer and trans teens and adults reconnect with their bodies, navigate identity, and heal from trauma. Using somatic and relational approaches, we build awareness, presence, and self-trust so you can move through life with more clarity, ease, and authenticity.
Starting therapy can feel both hopeful and intimidating—you don’t have to do it alone. I offer a grounded, compassionate space where all parts of you are welcome. If you’re ready to feel more connected to yourself and your life, I’d be honored to walk alongside you in that process.
