Therapists » Marriage & Family Therapist Associate
I work with queer and trans people, and welcome clients who do not fit those identities. I am particularly interested in working with—but not limited to—relationship dynamics, gender and sexuality exploration, anxiety, depression, trauma, grief, sensitivity, neurodivergence, inner child work, fat justice / liberation, and connecting to self-expression. I invite clients who are sitting with the questions of… How can I live fully as myself? What's happening in my relationship to self? To others? To the world? I value supporting you in your authentic expression beyond constructs and rules, and I work very experientially. I am heart centered, warm, honest, deeply caring, intuitive, relational, and attuned to the present moment. I am open to meeting you in your multidimensional and multifaceted experience as a human. I embrace imperfection, and have acceptance of your humanness as silly, weird, messy, gross, and not something you always have to apologize for. I invite you to reach out. Therapy may be uncomfortable sometimes—acknowledging the truth can be painful and scary. My hope is that we can build a container together in which it is a little more bearable to sit with your discomfort or pain, and to slowly allow for more contact with it and spaciousness around it—allowing new possibilities to emerge.
