A bit about me
I provide a caring and grounded space for you to show up however you are, without judgment. I welcome you as the expert of your own life into collaboration with me as a witness and accountability partner to the challenges and goals you navigate.
Our process together can help bring care and understanding to what has been confusing or hard to share, which might include painful experiences, complex identities, patterns that feel stuck, and the impact of harmful systems.
I practice EMDR, IFS, and relational psychodynamic psychotherapy. I incorporate mindfulness, body-based practices, and creative play into sessions when appropriate. My work is informed by antiracism, disability justice, liberation health model, and transfeminism.
I strive to make therapy as accessible as possible. If you have any needs or questions about accommodations, please reach out. If you're seeking a therapist who shares an aspect of your lived experience, you're welcome to ask about my personal history and identities. If you're not sure whether I accept your insurance, please ask.
