About
I limit my practice to LGBTQIA folks. I help queer people to come out, accept themselves, navigate life's journey, and thrive. I work with trans folks throughout their transitions. I give my clients feedback and use my life experiences to connect with them. I'll help you to view situations in new ways, clarify ideas, and invite you to try new things. As partners in counseling, we work to achieve the same ends. Every person has physical, emotional, mental and spiritual aspects which are all considered and addressed in my approach.
Life problems that my clients have addressed include: anxiety, depression, self-improvement, PTSD, grief and loss, trust, parenting, life transitions, work problems, relationships, loneliness, self-esteem, stress management, trauma, decision-making, communication, and spiritual problems.
I employ an individualized approach to counseling and utilize a variety of techniques. Some focus on improving coping skills or ways to change old, ineffective thought patterns. Others will target feelings, experiences and mindfulness. EMDR can help to resolve emotions about distressing past experiences.
