Introduction

Whether you have more questions about yourself than answers, you have spent years editing yourself and shrinking your desires, or you carry the quiet exhaustion of living in a world that offers too little care, I am here to hold space for your needs. My style is conversational, collaborative, and led by consent. Always at your pace, I will walk alongside you with curiosity instead of judgement. I invite you to bring any parts of you that want to be held, even if they feel contradictory, raw, unfinished, or too much. I predominantly work with members of the LGBTQIA+ community, especially TGNC folks, but am open to working with anyone! No theory holds more weight than your words and experiences, but I approach this work through an intersectional lens informed by critical race, queer, abolitionist, and feminist theory. Depending on your needs, I incorporate mindfulness, narrative, somatic, relational, art, and EMDR therapy. With that said, my approach to therapy is about honoring you first. I'd be happy to talk more about in a free 15 minute consult!
