Therapy with me is a process of increasing awareness, helping you to see things in your life as they are. This can be scary, and I will help you to hold any painful parts with safety and tenderness. With more awareness and compassion you can take more effective action in your life. All this happens within a caring relationship where I will bring my full self. I have spent time living a rigid and disconnected life - through therapy, spirituality, and community I have found softness and flexibility with myself and with others, a place from which I’ll meet with you. I’m curious, where would you like to feel more flexible and connected?
I bring to therapy varied experiences, including months of monastic Buddhist training, years of community organizing around economic and social justice, and a lifetime of experience giving and receiving support in queer community as a trans woman.
Through these experiences I understand that individual expressions of suffering are intimately linked to familial, societal, and global suffering. Therapy can be one place where we untangle the impacts of oppression and confront harmful systems where we have the most influence - within ourselves, allowing that change to radiate outwards.
