Are you queer, trans/GNC, or neurospicy? Maybe you're struggling with identity, chronic health issues, self-esteem, or trying to break cycles of generational trauma. You want therapy that feels real - where you can swear, laugh, talk about the uncomfortable, and exist without judgment. To challenge the systems causing you harm, reconnect with yourself, and maybe even feel a little hopeful again. It can feel comforting knowing your therapist has walked a similar path, that your own identities are reflected in them, and that they can see the truth of your experiences because they've been through it, too. Let me walk with you.
