A little about me
I view therapy (and the world) through an intersectional, social justice, trauma- and attachment-informed lens. I believe that a diagnosis does not define who people are, have been, or will become and I prefer to work collaboratively to determine what works best in regards to the therapeutic process.
My approach is informed by a variety of philosophies and models including Internal Family Systems, somatic practices, and Buddhist/mindfulness philosophy. I provide psychoeducation and support for building resilience, learning effective communication, understanding emotions, and being fully present and embodied.
I work well with people navigating neurodivergence (ADHD, Autism, etc.), addiction, complex trauma, attachment, grief, Adverse Childhood Experiences (ACEs), relational and communication issues, and the exploration of sexual orientation and/ or gender identity.
I am knowledgeable and comfortable working with veterans, people who have experienced the carceral system, and I am LGBTQ+, kink, and polyam affirming.
