As a queer, sex-positive and neurodivergent affirming therapist, I am passionate about working with folks whose experience is shaped by feeling "different"- due to sexuality, gender, ADHD/Autism, or relationship orientation. Many of my clients experience interpersonal challenges including social anxiety, people-pleasing, and fears of rejection. I am here to provide gentle feedback about the ways you can be kinder to yourself and practice firm but flexible boundaries.
As a trauma therapist, I help clients manage present emotions, revisit and reprocess past experiences, and create different patterns for the future. I borrow from attachment theory, parts work, mindfulness, systems theory, and somatic therapy. I am a Certified Trauma Professional and am committed to ongoing training and consultation about complex trauma.
Searching for a new therapist can bring up a lot of emotions, both positive and negative. I look forward to the opportunity to potentially support you wherever you are. I will gladly hop on a free 15-minute consultation call to see if I would be a good fit for you.
