Living with an LGBTQAIP and/or erotically diverse identity can often bring extra challenges along with experiences of resiliency and strength. As a queer-identified, polyamorous and gender fluid therapist, I value creating a safe space where multiple aspects of identity are welcome and opportunities for healing are abundant.
I offer sex and gender therapy using a relational, social-justice oriented, and goal driven approach. I am a non-monogamous informed and kink/BDSM affirming therapist who specializes in working with sexually and/or relationally diverse orientations. I provide trauma-specific therapy and am trained in EMDR, CPT and attachment focused modalities.
As an active and engaged therapist, I value working collaboratively to find what style works best for you. Whether you are looking for a safe space to explore different parts of your identity, have specific therapeutic goals, or would like to work with an affirming therapist as a foundation for therapy - all are welcome!
