Introduction

I support folks in recognizing their own resilience, exploring intersectional identities and sense of self, and navigating life's stressors and challenges. Maybe you're experiencing a shift in your life. Maybe there are parts of yourself that you need support with reconciling and integrating. Or maybe you have experienced trauma and are ready to process it. Whatever it is, I'm excited to bear witness to your growth and be part of your journey. My experience includes working with folx experiencing depression, anxiety, grief/loss, and PTSD/CPTSD, as well as LGBTQIA+ and QTBIPOC youth and their families. In my experience of working with QTBIPOC youth, adults, and families, I have learned that showing up, living authentically, and centering in queer joy, liberation, and celebration are sustainable ways to dismantle oppressive structures, systems, and the cishetero-patriarchy. I find that utilizing narrative processes, movement, art, and music are helpful tools in navigating, deconstructing, and processing through racialized trauma and experienced bigotry. My hope is to utilize my work and my position to support in decolonializing therapeutic spaces and uplifting QTBIPOC folx as we move through this healing journey together.
