I work with adults who are working through various life events and circumstances, including trauma and PTSD, grief and loss, depression, anxiety, the effects of oppression including racism, sexism, fatphobia, homophobia/biphobia, and/or transphobia; and the sorts of life transitions that are "normal" but tend to throw us for a loop anyway: marriage, divorce, career changes, births, deaths. I work with people to help experiences of deep pain become more bearable; to help relationships become deeper, richer, more complex, and more authentic; to help identify what you are hungering for and set about trying to meet that, consciously and in ways that make your life better. I am LGBTQ-affirming and my practice is informed by a strong commitment to integrating a social justice and anti-oppression understanding and approach. It's important to me that you feel supported and cared for in therapy, so that we can create a space in which you can be open, honest, and vulnerable. I hope you will experience me as warm, responsive, and perceptive, while also gently challenging you to perhaps think and act in some new ways.
