Live undaunted
Helping people live and thrive as their most genuine and authentic selves
Individuals
One of the most important therapeutic tools is the relationship between the therapist and the client. As such, I provide an environment tailored to you. I draw techniques from a number of counseling approaches to find the approach best suited to you. I find myself particularly drawn to narrative therapy, acceptance & commitment therapy (ACT), internal family system (IFS). All of that basically means that I believe we often find ourselves stuck in stories we didn’t even know we’re the authors of and when we are able to find the right pen, we can do anything.
Relational & Sex
(Couples, Triads, Etc.)
You may have heard before that “communication is key” in intimate and/or romantic relationships but often we have never been expressly taught what “good communication” even is. I truly enjoy helping relational partners learn how to communicate authentically, effectively, and openly with your partner(s). I work alongside you to identify your struggles, address them together as a partnership, and become stronger, more resilient, and happier together.
Trans & Gender-Expansive Folx
Beginning or continuing the journey of living as your most authentic self takes courage, honesty, and self-compassion. I offer gender-affirming individual counseling to adolescents, adults, and families in a supportive, collaborative, and empathetic environment with a focus on helping you succeed in the journey you have defined for yourself. I am skilled and experienced in helping folx explore ideas related to gender presentation, transitioning (hormonal, physical, social, etc), identity, and relationships. I also provide support letters to established and ongoing clients as needed and offer supportive counseling for families and loved ones of trans and gender-expansive folx.
