“In the World through which I travel, I am endlessly creating myself” - Frantz Fanon

I am a radical queer therapist from Texas, excited to join you on your journey of self-understanding, healing, and empowerment.

As a transgender person and social worker, I am intimately familiar with the myriad ways in which Queer people have been marginalized by mental health systems and am committed to a liberatory practice which addresses these injustices in a direct and hopefully transformative way.

My style is warm, open, curious, and empowering, with a focus on you as a complex person in relationship to other people and to complex systems.

Utilizing a psychoanalytic, relational, trauma-informed, systems-centered approach, I focus on exploring the roots of our struggles, strengths, and whole selves, and the possibility of creatively engaging with the world around us. I am committed to anti-racist, LGBT affirming, feminist practice that addresses the complex roles of systems in our lives.

In our sessions you can expect a warm and curious environment of exploration and an embrace of our innate capacity for change. As we work towards change in your day-to-day life, we will explore the roots of your struggles, strengths, and whole self, opening new possibilities for creative engagement with yourself and the world around you.
