Hello there! I identify as white, queer, non-binary, and able-bodied. I believe that it is crucial to approach therapeutic work from a lens in which my privilege is acknowledged, the client’s social locations are celebrated, and the intersections of our identities are able to be openly discussed. My biggest values within the therapeutic context include bodily autonomy, boundaries, consent, reclamation, spaciousness, and relational healing. I recognize and acknowledge I still have much left to learn as a student – and I am excited to continue expanding my knowledge and therapeutic tools. I am particularly interested in working with folks regarding sexual pain, sexual dysfunction, sexual desire, kink, religious trauma, out of control sexual behavior, the intersection of sexuality and disability, sexual shame, impacts of developmental/complex trauma, differentiation, people-pleasing, communication, and identity exploration, etc. This being said, am kink, BDSM, and polyamory affirming. I am also available to write letters for gender-affirming care. I believe that it is crucial to "move at the speed of trust" and build rapport to create a sense of safety within the therapeutic container.
