About me
I provide a relaxed judgement free environment for my clients to express themselves and comfortably engage in therapy. Helping people live a happy life is deeply fulfilling to me and drives me every day to do the hard work with the folks who trust me to help them. I use a variety of approaches and techniques to give people the best possible experience in healing themselves.
I am experienced and enjoy working with LGBTQ+, kink, alternative relationship styles, and am sex positive in my approach.
My foundational belief of resilience stems from personal experience. I was a medically complex child and have continued to navigate the health care system, chronic pain, and illness as a professional adult. I've experienced struggles life can throw your way, grief, and loss. Trauma can be the result of many things, and is layered. Often, we may not even realize how a life event has manifested itself as traumatic in our lives; the ability to grow, learn, and become stronger through the healing process exists with the appropriate support system and tools.
