I focus on trauma, life transitions, LGBTQIA issues, and how adverse experiences impact an individual's ability to effectively respond to life's many difficulties. Depression and anxiety manifest often as a result of dealing with challenges and it is necessary to reconnect with an innate, authentic sense of self in order to experience a fulfilling life. Each person deserves to live a life of purpose and meaning. I strive to help clients increase their sense of agency, feel more connected with themselves, and become better attuned to the world around them.
I offer embodiment and parts work focused, relational psychotherapy that is trauma-informed, while attending to intersectional considerations. I use an eclectic and integrative approach responsive to client’s needs and capabilities, emphasizing the client's agency within session. I also write letters of readiness for those seeking gender affirming surgery.
I believe that the therapist and client are fellow travelers: while the client does the change work in and outside of session, it is the responsibility of the therapist to hold space and provide the tools, support, and perspective during this process. Feel free to reach out if you are curious to learn more about me and my process.
