Great to meet you!

I belong to many communities and have many identities. Most strongly I identify as Queer, a Person of Color and Intersex. I strive to use these experiences and identities to help me connect to clients. I volunteer and work with intersex, gender-expansive, and trans youth and adults. I see the care I offer as an act of resilience and defiance.

My approach to therapy

I take a very straightforward, yet warm and non-judgmental approach to my work. I offer client-centered therapy with an emphasis on helping individuals reach wholeness and authenticity. I do not believe I can be an authority on anyone else’s experience, but I might be able to offer a perspective that helps someone see their life in another way.

What you can expect from me

With a background in Sex Education, Rape/Sexual Assault and Intimate Partner Violence Prevention I have spent over 20 years helping people process both the joys and sorrows of relationships. This experience has given me a unique and varied perspective on how one's sense of self is held and how boundaries are established. Together we can work to find what your truest sense of self is and how to hold on to that in a world that sometimes makes it difficult to do so.
