I truly believe that each client is the absolute expert on themselves and strive always to create space for clients to feel, be, and show up as their authentic selves. My approach is relational, casual, sex positive, and gender affirming. I take a systems approach to appreciating all the different factors that make up you and your unique experiences in the world. I specialize in complex trauma, and love to work with folks within the LGBTQIA2S+ community, folks struggling to navigate overwhelming emotions, folks struggling with boundary setting, and folks looking to explore and truly find love and compassion for themselves.
I am trained in DBT, Somatic & Attachment Focused EMDR, Somatic Experiencing, and am currently completing a certificate in Sex Therapy. I want to help gently guide you back into a relationship between your brain, body, & environment, so that you can confidently move through your world with the felt sense of safety and control that you deserve.
I want therapy to be an environment of empowerment, invitation, and collaboration. I want to laugh with you, walk alongside you, and help you to find empowerment and safety in your daily life. You deserve to feel at home within yourself. Please feel free to reach out for a free 15 minute consultation to see if we could be a good fit!
