I am a queer fat femme who practices at the intersections of oppression, grief, trauma and liberation. I believe healing and liberation are our birthright. And yes, that means I believe that you can heal from complex, developmental and intergenerational trauma. And yes, I believe I can help. But when I say I can help, what I really mean is: I understand that the deep wisdom of your body knows the exact right way to heal. My job as your therapist is to help you learn to connect with this deep som...
Counseling is your chance to talk to a Therapist about YOU, your life, your wants, needs, feelings, and relationships. This is your opportunity to be seen and heard and to get the support you need to feel better. Counseling can treat many many things from small concerns to major ones. You do not have to have a ‘mental illness’ to seek therapy and counseling support. You can be a well functioning individual who wants to make changes or improve your self awareness. We are telehealth based practic...

Do you find yourself gripped by anxiety and worry, no matter what you do? You’ve accomplished a lot in life, but don’t feel the sense of fulfillment you expected. A big life change—maybe a breakup, new job, new relationship, loss of a loved one, or change in family relationships—has highlighted the fact that you’re still not as happy or confident as you want to be. Something is telling you that you need to make a shift (even if you’re not quite sure what it is). You want to gain deeper insight i...

You feel helpless to change and you worry that you will feel this way for the rest of your life.

I work with people who identify as: quirky/nerdy, highly-intelligent, introverted, highly-sensitive, or as having ADHD or Autism (or some combination of these). People with these traits often share something: a sense of outsider-ship, of not quite belonging. Sometimes that's just fine, but sometimes it hurts, and can lead to loneliness, shame, isolation, depressions, self-loathing--all that fun stuff. I, myself, have 3 or 4 of the above traits, AND was homeschooled on top of it, so my own...
