I am a Gender Queer-identified therapist with over 25 years of experience working with diverse Transgender, Queer, Lesbian, Bisexual, and Gay identified individuals. My style is warm, active, and authentic. Starting therapy is hard, so my priority in early sessions is for you to feel relaxed, understood, and comfortable. Your laughter and questions are welcomed. With a background in LGBTQ+ public health, I am sensitive to the challenges and stressors that come with living outside cisgender/hetero norms. I also value subjugated knowledge - our wisdom from not fitting into the dominant culture.
I tend to be a good fit for people looking to address trauma, negative beliefs, or taking a big step in life - like starting social/physical transition or becoming an LGBTQ+ parent (I'm a parent too). I frequently use EMDR (an evidence-based treatment) to help clients who feel "stuck," anxious, or looking to resolve painful relationship patterns.
Please feel free to contact me by email or phone to discuss your therapy goals. I am happy to answer questions about EMDR and discuss the various ways it can help people with and without trauma histories. I typically respond to inquiries within two business days.
