I believe that long- lasting, meaningful growth thrives in self-compassion, honoring shame, and creating purpose. Inherited and experienced trauma can remain in the body and inform our choices, so one of my goals is to offer a guiding hand in disentangling negative core beliefs from the body and sense of self. My therapeutic practice is filtered through a strengths-based and feminist lens, and as a queer therapist, I aim to foster an LGBTQIA+ affirming space, challenge racist systems, encourage body empowerment at every size, and promote sex-positivity.
I love working with fellow neurodivergent and LGBTQIA+ folks, those wishing to repair their relationships with food and their bodies, and survivors of trauma. Other areas of interest and experience include grief and loss, gender and sexuality exploration, and skill acquisition for emotional regulation, including support with suicidal ideation and self harm.
Genuineness, fun, and kind curiosity are a few of my fundamental values that I love to bring into the sacred healing space. I would be honored to join you on your beautiful journey of self- love and discovery! Take good care :) I support and write surgery readiness and accommodations letters, minimum 1 session required.
