I enjoy offering informed and non-judgmental therapy for LGBTQAI people. My focuses include the asexual spectrum, the kink community, people practicing ethical non-monogamy, and individuals with fetishes.
This group will go through the TREM curriculum in about 6-9 months. Women will find a place where they can share their stories, their strengths and their hopes. Women will be empowered to continue the journey of recovery in a way that will positively impact their lives. The group will meet on a weekly basis with two facilitators and a maximum of 20 women.

I am a social worker that does community activism. Many times people have problems because of the injustices built into our system. In my work in therapy I can help people to identify issues in their lives and give them skills to deal with situations they find themselves in. I want to remove stigma from mental health treatment by offering it to everyone. I am committed to treating people with every day issues that may negatively impact their lives so that they can move forward to have happy and successful lives. I want to listen to people and help them develop the skills they need.
