Non-Binary Therapists in Eau Claire, WI
I enjoy working with people to create a nonjudgmental space that is tailored to their needs and goals. My view is that we are connected internally and externally in a web of different systems that impact us, and through understanding how these systems and the client are affecting one another do we get a comprehensive view of what’s going on. When appropriate and agreed upon, I will work with people in these different systems (e.g., family, loved ones, teachers, primary care providers, social workers, parole officers, etc.) to help provide continuity of care and a cohesive treatment plan.

Do you feel overwhelmed by emotions or physical symptoms, such as hopelessness, pain, or panic? Does the thought of being present with your body feel uncomfortable or even scary? In my work, I help folks of all backgrounds find a sense of safety in their body after experiences of trauma, chronic pain, and body-based oppression (transphobia, anti-fat bias, ableism, racism, etc.). We’ll work together to understand and befriend your nervous system and build upon experiences of safety and connection to promote healing and emotional well-being.

We all struggle with navigating our lives at some time or another. Whether it be with who we are, relationships in our lives, day-to-day stress, or the compounding challenges of all of the above - we need help. As a licensed psychologist and non-binary, queer, liberation-focused therapist, I am dedicated to providing a transformative therapeutic experience that centers on your journey toward self-empowerment and joy. My practice is founded on the belief that every individual deserves a space where they can explore, heal, and thrive without fear of judgment or marginalization.

I’m no “how do you feel about that?” therapist. You’re serious about your life, and you want real value for your time and money. I’m like a conductor and coach: your growth is my growth. I give no-nonsense feedback—no excuses, no sugarcoating (maybe a little cheeze sometimes because life is too real sometimes). I’m brown, queer, gender-affirming, sex-positive, and here to help you build deep, satisfying relationships. Connection is power and purpose. My mission is to remind people of their inherent worthiness, to invite them to practice love for themselves, others, and their communities, and to offer lessons in liberation.

Growing up in a small, midwestern town, I came to realize that we don't get nearly enough information on how to properly engage with one another in our relationships in healthy and fulfilling ways. As a queer and trans person, the lack of information was exponentially worse. As a therapist, I want to be there for people who recognize this and want to have better relationships with others and with themselves. I also want to be there especially for my fellow queer and transgender people given how lonely I felt thinking that there were no therapists like me. While I didn't get that, I want to BE that for others.

I love working with couples, families, and individuals in areas such as boundaries and boundary setting, personal power, gender identity, anxiety, depression, trauma, stress, relationship stressors, life transitions, non-monogamy, sex and sexuality, kink exploration, and anything else that affects our ability to be ourselves. I am a body-positive, queer, neurodivergent, wonderful person. My approach to this work is continuously informed by my values in anti-racism, queer and intersectional feminist theory, and body liberation.
