My clients come from all walks of life. Whoever you are you are ready for changes. You may have tried a variety of therapies and always found something was missing. Maybe you had a poor experience in the past with a counselor who "missed" you. My passion is working with folks who are eager and ready to dive in and make change. Start your journey today.

 

You seek non-traditional counseling

Talk therapy alone isn't working for you. You seek an approach that gets you out of your head and into your body. Simply talking about life outside the therapy room doesn't seem to be creating the changes you need. You seek a modality that brings here and now experience into the counseling session to create lasting change.

you struggle with Depression or Anxiety, but know there's more than this

Some days are so hard you feel like giving up hope, but deep down you know there's more than this. You seek a practitioner who believes in full and lasting change, and wants to join you on that journey. You won't settle for quick fixes or surface level approaches.

you are lgbt+, non-monogamous or sex positive

And you don't want to have to explain yourself. You know this is part of who you are, not part of "the problem." You seek a counselor who seeks to understand your unique story, but doesn't need you to teach them the basics. Or, if you are exploring, you seek a safe, non-pressuring environment to do so.

 

You value social justice

You want a counselor who is aware of systemic oppression, marginalized identities and power and privilege.

 I am a white, cis-gendered, able bodied queer woman. As a person with white privilege I hold the intention of being a life-long student in the “unlearning” of white supremacy and work to contribute to the liberation and empowerment of all beings.

I welcome folks of all backgrounds and identities. I believe in a model of cultural humility (rather than cultural competence), meaning that I acknowledge no matter how much I learn academically I will never fully understand the lived experience of daily marginalization and oppression. I commit to listening to and believing my clients, trusting them as the expert in their own experience.
