The more-than-human world has never stopped loving you. You are the one who knows what hurts, what longs to grow, and what you’re ready to face. In our work together, you choose the direction. "Suppose we did our work like the snow, quietly, quietly. Leaving nothing out." -Wendell Berry Before becoming a therapist, I worked in healthcare for a decade. I am uniquely situated to understand and work with both seekers and providers of medical care. I go by the name: Nomi.

In session with me, you can expect a collaborative alliance focused on addressing your mental health goals and overcoming the barriers to achieving them. I primarily provide individual therapy, but am open to working with couples and families as well!

Life's unpredictability and challenges can lead to uncertainty, fear, and stress. Many clients who seek my psychotherapy services experience stress, anxiety, or depression, often stemming from life transitions, grief, or struggles with interpersonal relationships and self-identity. Whether they are new to therapy or have tried it before, clients may feel apprehensive about continuing their healing journey. In our sessions, clients find a welcoming, supportive, and comfortable environment where they feel understood and heard. I utilize evidence-based therapy strategies to guide them through this process.

Does your heart beat too fast at unexpected times? Is there a whirlwind of emotion that you can't quite grasp? Does it feel like your struggling to survive? Many of us have been taught to "keep on" no matter what adversity we've experienced and often without the help we need. Are you attempting to navigate a world that doesn't make sense or align with your values? Are you caring for everyone else before you can get to your own needs? These experiences can cause anxiety, depression, irritability and even justified anger. I can help you process your experience(s), cope with your sadness, and find healing from trauma. Joy is possible.

I offer a space where you can feel understood and supported, while also helping you build patterns, systems, and ways of approaching life that actually work for you long term.

I focus on building a strong foundational relationship with clients, collaboratively developing self-awareness, mood-stabilizing skills and communication tools that allow for the safe reprocessing of difficult experiences and emotions. I work with people who have experienced a range of challenges, from difficulties with life adjustments to complicated trauma and loss. It is important to me that clients understand that difficult and traumatic experiences can arise from a seemingly “normal” childhood or life event. Therapeutic support and guidance for any destabilizing event or emotion is a valuable resource.

As someone with marginalized identities, I am particularly interested in working with folks around race, gender identity, sexual orientation, kink, and nonmonogamy.
As a couple and family therapist, I cannot help but think and approach problems from a systemic perspective. This means, I will not just focus on the client(s), but also their context, relationships, and broader systems that might impact them.

Transgender Therapists
As a gender-diverse individual, why might I want to see a therapist who is also gender diverse?
A trans or gender-diverse client may want to see a therapist who is also trans or gender diverse because the client may feel safer sharing their experiences and more confident that the therapist will understand, validate, and support them. But trans or gender-diverse clients can also benefit from therapy with cisgender therapists; this is a personal decision based on the connection between the client and the therapist, and if that connection is strong, therapy will be successful.

What if I cannot find a therapist who shares my gender identity?
Therapy can still be effective if a therapist does not share a client’s gender identity; a large body of research indicates that the most important factor in successful therapy is the therapeutic alliance. A therapist can also be interviewed for sensitivity and competence on gender identity and expression to ensure they possess appropriate knowledge and skills. Many therapists have excellent training and extensive experience working with gender-diverse clients, and that expertise can be invaluable despite a therapist not sharing the same firsthand experiences.

How can I recognize a good therapist for working with gender-diverse clients?
An experienced therapist should be able to help clients explore their gender identity and expression, alleviate discomfort related to their gender identity, treat mental health challenges and trauma, address existing relationships and communication with family members and loved ones, and determine the next steps pertaining to nonmedical or medical gender-affirming interventions. To recognize a good therapist, clients can ask about these topics and explore their comfort and connection with the clinician.

How might I inquire about a therapist’s experience working with transgender clients?
Clients should feel comfortable asking therapists directly about their experience working with transgender or gender-diverse clientele. For example, clients may ask about the therapist’s training and education with regard to gender identity, how many trans clients they’ve worked with in the past, and what sorts of matters were discussed. You may wish to inquire how a therapist specifically supports the needs of transgender clients or clients questioning their gender identity. A good clinician who is nonetheless not the right fit for you is often happy to make referrals to others based on the concerns you articulate in a preliminary conversation.
