I currently have a waitlist for individual therapy, and am only available for clinical supervision. I am fortunate to work with a team of amazing psychotherapist that I'd be happy to connect you with if you are looking for individual or relationship therapy. Good therapy is more than just validation, it is important to work with intention from a theory that can help us understand the “why” behind patterns. This is why I practice and teach Depth Psychotherapy and Liberation Psychology.
I believe in understanding who you are, how you got here, and how you are impacted by the world. I am experienced providing affirming care for clients in the sex work, queer and trans, kink and CNM communities, and people who have had challenges with mental health providers before.

I know how important theory is from my work teaching clinical grad students and supervising new therapists. I use depth psychodynamic theory, and draw on liberation psychology, feminist counseling, and existential therapy. I love conversations about what we are doing and the reasons behind why I may say (or not say) something, to make sure therapy is best serving you for where you want to go.
