You may be working through trauma, questioning parts of your identity, exploring sex, sexuality, or gender, or rethinking beliefs that once shaped how you understood yourself and the world. Maybe you feel disconnected from your body, relationships, or sense of self and want a space where you can explore without judgment. I especially enjoy working with people who are curious about themselves and want to better understand their experiences, patterns, relationships, and what it means to live authentically.
I bring over a decade of experience in sexual and domestic violence prevention and advocacy to my work as a therapist. My approach is trauma-focused, LGBTQIA+, polyamory/CNM, and kink affirming. I integrate somatic and mind-body work with parts work, attachment, existential, emotion-focused, and other approaches based on what fits you. Together, we can explore not only what you have experienced, but how it has shaped your body, relationships, beliefs, and sense of self.
You do not have to fit yourself, your relationships, your identity, or your experiences into someone else's idea of what they should look like. Therapy can be a place to get curious, reconnect with yourself, and explore what feels true and meaningful to you. I will meet you with openness, compassion, and respect for the complexity of your story. If you are looking for a space where all parts of you are welcome, I would be honored to work alongside you.
