I am a queer, nonbinary social worker passionate about providing LGBTQIA+ affirming therapy. I work with clients around sexuality, gender identity, intersecting identities, coping with oppressive systems, and relationship concerns, as well as other challenges such as depression, anxiety, trauma, and athlete specific concerns. I have completed extensive training in LGBTQIA+ care. Relatedly, I authored the Glossary chapter in Sex Therapy with Erotically Marginalized Clients: Nine Principles of Clinical Support.
My therapy style is influenced by psychodynamic theories, relational psychotherapy, attachment theory, contemplative psychology, somatics, and social justice theories. My approach is eclectic and client centered, meaning I tailor my work with each client to their unique strengths and challenges.
Here are some beliefs that inform my work:
-Individual pain is rarely isolated from other factors like structural oppression, family dynamics, work and family expectations, etc.
-Suffering in silence hardens pain.
-Therapy can be a space of enormous growth and healing.
-Relationships, including the therapy relationship, have transformative power.
Our early experiences of relationships and attachment tremendously impact how we relate to the world, and through exploring those relationships we can create new narratives and ways of being that are more fulfilling, reciprocal, and safe.
