Tele-Psychotherapy 

My style is warm, active, and authentic.  Starting therapy is hard, so my priority is for you to feel relaxed, understood, and comfortable in early sessions.  I welcome laughter and questions in therapy. With a background in LGBTQ+ public health, I am sensitive to the challenges and stressors that come with living outside cisgender/hetero norms.

​

I tend to be a good fit for people looking to address core negative beliefs, or taking a big step in life - like starting social/physical transition or becoming an LGBTQ+ identified parent (I'm a parent too). 

​

I have advanced EMDR training and offer specialized protocols that address avoidance, dissociation, and high distress when processing painful memories. I also frequently use EMDR to help clients feeling "stuck," anxious, or looking to change upsetting patterns in life. 

​

In addition, I incorporate the following approaches in my work:

​

• Psycho-dynamic

• Cognitive-Behavioral 

• Motivational Interviewing & Harm Reduction

• Subjugated Knowledge​ - valuing the wisdom and skills we possess from not fitting into the dominant culture

​

I am an out-of-network provider and offer a sliding scale to a portion of clients in need. ​
