Everyone deserves to feel at home in their body. I work using an intersectional feminist perspective with a focus on trauma, gender, sexuality and wellness and specialize in working with LGBTQ+, TGNCNB and queer identified communities. Working with a therapist as you strive towards your goals of healing can be an act of liberation and a vital part of envisioning a just future for yourself and the world you live in. The mind and body are impacted when you experience stress and trauma and my approach is to address both using tools like meditation, EFT, guided visualization, and body movement.

We all have ideas of what our lives are going to look like. Processing events that veer life off the anticipated course can be difficult. Similarly, the anticipated course does not always feel as we expected it would. It is okay to not be okay, It is not okay to suffer.
