I work with people who want to reclaim the story of their lives. Some of us lost years living out someone else's life- -but it's never too late to become yourself. You can determine the genre of story you live in, the type of protagonist you become. I try to help people deal with the excitement that comes with infinite potential and the dread that comes with infinite choice.
My style is colorful, humorous, and authentic: no robotic responses. I teach graduate courses on therapy, and bring insights from research to the couch: I offer perspectives from science, myth, history, and the arts. I am a person of trans experience, I advocate for sexual minorities, and train other therapists on polyamory, kink, and LGBTQ issues.
Therapy can be more than a band-aid, a "tool," a vent-session, or a weekly confessional. It's a place where liberation is possible. It can awaken us to wilder and more wonderful ways of living. Don't just heal what hurts. Learn to thrive. Note: I am only accepting new clients who pay out of pocket. Visit my website: www.coriandersalamander.com
