I see individual adults with a range of therapeutic interests. Some are feeling confused, afraid, ashamed or curious about their gender or sexual identities. Others want to improve communication in relationships they rely on to get their needs met or that they turn to for deep meaning. Some clients are struggling after losing a beloved person, pet, home, or other significant place or relationship, including by suicide, accident, disaster or violence. Still others are laboring on the front lines for justice, autonomy, self-determination and collective liberation in the face of interlocking systemic oppressions and personal trauma.
I help clients identify boundaries and act on their own values, especially LGBTQIA+ clients and folks in queer or non-monogamous relationships. I also help clients tell their most empowered post-traumatic-growth stories, and I help them continue old bonds in new ways after loss. I also help clients connect with empowering histories and affirming communities.
You can grow resilience, access strength, build self-love, learn skills for mindfulness and change, connect with community, and embody joy, and I can help you understand and express the full range of emotions along the way. If you think you’d benefit from working with me, just call or email so we can set up a free brief chat to learn more about each other!
