I am a queer therapist who provides queer and gender-affirming mental health care, WPATH-based assessments for letters of support, &/or trauma-informed mental health support so that you can move forward in the way that works best for you.

As a queer person, I know queer clients often have trauma and have historically been harmed by the mental health field. That's why I use transparent and collaborative postmodern models to provide affirming, trauma-informed, strength-based care.
In therapy sessions, we will set treatment goals to work together on the presenting problems. Constant feedback is always welcomed on activities and discussion topics to assist with the therapy process.

My approach is client centered, meaning the focus will remain on the concerns the client brings to therapy. Different techniques I use involve trauma focused CBT, DBT, and EMDR (in office only).
Work towards the goals that you have set whether it is to gain knowledge on a particular thing you are interested in, reduce symptoms, or build a stronger relationship with your partner or child.

It is important to me that clients are involved in the treatment planning process. This is your journey and you are the expert on yourself.
Together we will work to establish goals you want to achieve with therapy and develop action plans for you to focus on between your sessions. As we progress we will evaluate the barriers you encounter and celebrate your success.

I utilize Acceptance and Commitment Therapy and Jungian therapy. I encourage clients to explore their internal world through shadow work while working to accept the aspects of ourselves that bring us guilt and shame.
I help clients discover how their past experiences shape their current beliefs and mindset. From there, we reflect on what beliefs we want to modify, get rid of or keep.

I think that listening is the most important part of my role as a therapist. From there, I work to help my clients identify patterns in their behavior, relationships, and emotions and how we can work together to make changes.
