I practice therapy because I believe in the human capacity for liberation and healing, and our ability to empower each other and collectively improve our lives. I don't know what living a life that you love and value would look like for you, but I'm excited to find out together. I've primarily worked with people with serious trauma histories. I’m especially experienced in working with LGBTQIA+ folks, and with the kink and poly/ENM communities. I know how important it is to not only be affirmed in your identities, but understood as someone connected to the larger world.
I draw from a variety of modalities in my practice, though have a particular grounding focus on EMDR therapy, a somatic therapy for the treatment of trauma in its many manifestations. I also draw strongly from narrative therapy, which I appreciate for its focus on stories, ethics, and values in our lives.
I'm currently accepting individuals and couples for therapy. Please reach out and tell me a little bit about what you're seeking therapy for. I'll arrange a time to talk further, answer any of your questions, and see if I might be a good fit as your therapist.
