I became a clinician for a myriad of reasons, one being that I understand the desire to search for identity. As a queer, genderfluid individual who uses she/they pronouns, this search reflects in my work to help others who are searching for insight into themselves. I acknowledge that others are the experts in their own lives and that I am a therapeutic conduit toward insight, healing, and empowerment. I am dedicated to working with those in marginalized communities, particularly those who identify as part of the LGBTQIA+ community.
I identify as a queer, genderfluid clinician, and use she/they pronouns. I have specializations in mood and anxiety disorders, as well as personality structures, and sexual / gender identity and formation. I work from a sex-positive and holistic approach, utilizing narrative and psychoanalytic styles, combined with attachment theory.
I am dedicated to working with those in marginalized communities, particularly those who identify as being part of the LGBTQIA+ community. Therapy takes many paths, and I consider it a gift to be able to help you find your way through the issues and challenges that are present in your life.
