Warm greetings to you! I have over 20 years experience of trauma-informed care working primarily with adolescents, women, survivors of sexual and domestic violence, and LGBTQIA+ individuals (including support and references for gender affirming care). I enjoy connecting with people, listening to the stories they carry about themselves, and how these stories and experiences impact mental, emotional, and behavioral patterns. I’m also very interested in exploring the ways in which trauma and emotions are stored in the body and how we can work together through healing nervous system responses in order to move more flexibly through life.
I’m passionate about providing support for neurodivergent individuals as they navigate neurotypical and ableist spaces. I value the interaction between individuals and their environments, and recognize that both influence a person's behavior and well-being. I believe it is vital to address the material realities of oppression and privilege on mental health.
Clients often describe me as warm and comforting, though not afraid to offer a gentle challenge. I tend to have a dry sense of humor and utilize a lot of metaphors in exploring change and growth. I look forward to connecting with you and accompanying alongside your healing journey.

I work frequently with women and gender minorities who have late-diagnosed or late-suspected Autism and ADHD. I strive to create a therapeutic environment that values all neurotypes, frequently using metaphor, visuals, and other accommodations that work for neurodivergent folks. I operate from a liberatory lens to examine both individual and systemic barriers to mental health.

My favorite therapeutic model is narrative therapy, exploring the ways in which the stories we tell ourselves and that others tell about us impact our daily functioning. I also enjoy "brass tacks" approaches such as CBT, DBT, and Mindfulness - offering concrete strategies for engaging with change.
