I strongly believe that each of us are the experts of our own experience and, simultaneously, often faced with circumstances that obstruct our attunement to our own needs. For many individuals (particularly those with marginalized identities), to access and honor one’s expertise surrounding their own needs and aspirations is to begin a radical and heroic journey—one in which therapy can serve as a transformative means of not only surviving but thriving.
To this end, I use a relational, person-in-environment approach grounded in humility and genuine curiosity that incorporates your unique social and cultural contexts as well as their interactions with the intricacies of your internal world into our exploration of what experiences brought you to therapy and how we will move forward. While my personal and professional experiences of consensual non-monogamy (CNM), neurodivergence/expansion, harm reduction, disability justice, transformative justice, and gender expansion as well as my training in internal family systems (IFS) therapy, emotion-focused therapy, and somatic experiencing greatly inform my work, I frequently draw from multiple additional modalities (dialectical-behavioral, ego-state, solution-focused, cognitive-behavioral) and philosophical frameworks to support my provision of individualized care. Whatever the specific challenges that may have inspired you to pursue therapy, I am here to foster a nonjudgmental, empowering space for you to work towards your favorite self and celebrate the steps you have taken to do so thus far!
