Introduction

In my seven years as a counselor, I have had the joy of working largely with queer and trans folks. We honor intersectionality and nuance by centering culturally-responsive care, and we start the journey to healing and self-understanding by excavating both 'the what' and 'the why' behind current challenges. With a strong foundation in Motivational Interviewing, I am able to draw on principles of CBT, ACT, and Existential-Humanistic Therapy to provide interventions that balance measuredness with challenge. I will always meet you where you are, and together we can tailor the therapeutic approach to address gender dysphoria as well as co-occurring conditions like ADHD, anxiety, and depression. Our work will encompass taking new perspectives, building psychological flexibility, practicing acceptance, and making adaptive behavioral changes. You will learn more about yourself and your needs, and you will find your sense of belonging in your communities and relationships.
