Pro Palestine/LGBTQ+/BLM/sex workers/kink. I specialize in healing from expected neurological responses to trauma/harm. My training, both academic & visceral experiences, have all contributed in creating an eclectic therapeutic approach that values empowerment, self-direction, non-judgmental, emotional safety, validation, dignity, and respect above all else. I believe the client and the therapist are collaborate towards achieving the client’s therapeutic goals and great strides can be made through empowering collective actions.
I am a Certified Trauma Professional. I have specialized training in the neurological impact from trauma/harm, Dialectical Behavioral Therapy (DBT)/Advanced DBT, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Empowerment Model, Strength Based Perspective, Recovery from Addictive Illnesses, Exposure/Impact of Violence, Healing from Sexual Trauma, and Forensic Screening.
My purpose is to treat my clients in the same way in which I want to be treated. I highly value my client's ethnic/cultural/gender/sexual/body/neuro diversity and celebrate the fact that all of our brains are unique to each one of us, and that gender and sexuality exists on a spectrum. Self direction is sacred. We should ALL feel appreciated for who we are.
