I’m a somatic therapist trained in EMDR (a trauma modality) and EFT (couples therapy) and am a certified sex educator. I help individuals and couples navigate the complexities of non-monogamy, life transitions, grief, fertility challenges, anxiety management, increasing self awareness, developing coping/regulation skills, trauma recovery, and beyond. I see therapy as a relationship that can facilitate growth and healing (in the myriad ways you might define those words) - not in isolation, but in support of connecting more fully outside of therapy, with yourself and your communities. A major predictor of therapy being helpful is the quality of your relationship - meaning it’s important to like your therapist enough to be able to have hard talks. You, more than anyone else, are going to be the best judge of that; it’s why having brief calls with a few therapists to see how you feel talking with them can be helpful in finding a good fit. Please feel encouraged to contact me with any questions about working together. If having a therapist with any of this lived experience is important to you, I’m queer, married, a parent, and am neurodivergent (ADHD). I’m also an active listener - you won’t be talking to a wall.
