If you are looking for a therapist who is knowledgeable, experienced, and affirming around LGBTQIA+ issues, you have come to the right place. I have an extensive background in supporting LGBTQIA+/queer clients working through depression, anxiety, trauma, relationship issues, and identity. Maybe you're looking for someone who can help you decide what identity fits best and where to go from there. Maybe you need to talk to someone who understands the unique intersection of trauma and queer identity. Maybe you just need a therapist who understands what it means to be poly/kinky/queer. I'm glad you're here.

I have over a decade of experience in the field, focusing primarily on an approach called harm reduction. Harm Reduction is a grassroots movement that started among people who were at risk for HIV and HepC (queer people, people who use drugs, sex workers). This approach impacts the work I do with all people. It is an approach to behavioral change that emphasizes meeting you where you are without judgement while moving you towards your goals. My work is also trauma informed, works with your mind and body, relational, and informed by social justice and systems of power, privilege, and oppression.

You can disarm the trauma and grief that has made the days so uncomfortable.
There are long, lost fears and often past traumas at play in all of us. Some surface, wreaking havoc with our lives. They can appear as grief, depression, anxiety or crisis. Others remain dormant and can surface at all the wrong times. You may appear successful, but despite your accomplishments, you are not happy or it seems like others are happier than you. Your personal relationships are not satisfying in the way you expected. Why is happiness still elusive? The uncertainty and stress of the past three years have put pressures on us which have frequently brought the worst in life to the surface.
