About this provider
Clients I Work With
I specialize in helping LGBTQIA+ adults manage stress, anxiety, perfectionist tendencies; deepen and strengthen their relationships with themselves and others; reprocess past trauma to foster healing and growth; and understand more about themselves within their cultures.
Approach
I look forward to getting to know all parts of you at the pace that works best for you and your system. I continue to learn ways to use an anti-oppressive, antiracist-trauma-focused, identity-affirming approach to life and therapy. I’m a naturally curious and reflective person with a strong, nerdy desire for learning and growing and I bring my authentic self to our work. I'm dedicated to treating people with respect, empathy, and kindness while also expanding cultural humility and maintaining accountability to avoid perpetuating the harm that systems in power inflict on marginalized populations. I hope you can feel comfortable, seen, and heard as we sit together in our sessions! I welcome whatever you need with you to help you feel settled in and ready.
Sitting together, we’ll co-create a space where all parts of you feel understood and cared for. We’ll boost your skills, self-compassion, and resiliency and help you foster a stronger relationship with your Self!
Beliefs & Lived Experience
I’m a Gemini ☀️ & 🌙 and a Virgo ⤴️. I’m a righty, an Empath, a queer late-bloomer, and an outgoing introvert. ADHD is one of my superpowers. I also have lived experience of complex-PTSD and anxiety, and support my participants with some of the same therapy tools that have helped support me in my healing. I love tattoos and have lost count of how many I have. Dropout, horror movies (think ghosts and found footage), and cozy YouTubers are my comfort. I’m a parent to several cats (who occasionally make appearances in sessions!).
More About My Practice
I offer consultation services to pre-licensed clinicians, EMDR clinicians pursuing certification, and colleagues looking to deepen and expand their offerings.
