Specializations

I work from a phase based model of trauma that includes first developing a safe therapeutic relationship, learning about trauma, and growing your ability to cope.

When needed, I can support you to process past events in an intentional, contained, and healing way.

I treat trauma using Narrative Therapy, Dialectical Behavioral skills, Response Based Therapy and Accelerated Resolution Therapy.

Trauma

I support individuals to explore their identities in a compassionate, supportive, trans and queer affirming space.

I support individuals who are transitioning, coming out, and/or re-defining their relationships.

I also support parents of LGBTQQ2+ children, and LGBTQQ2+ families.

(Please note I am not a trained sex therapist.)

Gender & Sexual Diversity

I provide psychoeducation about Neurodiverse brain function and help individuals develop strategies to meet their goals.

I care about treating executive function concerns, as well as the emotional struggles of ADHD and Autism.

I support my clients to embrace neurodiversity, and I create a space for you to develop a positive relationship with your mind.

ADHD & Autism

I support families, couples, as well as people in polyamorous relationships to work on relational pains and find ways towards relational healing. I enjoy supporting families and couples move courageously through times of struggle.

I view problems in families and relationships from a systemic relational lens that I find helps folks step out of blame and shame and into curiosity and connection.

I support families of all ages, and partnerships of all kinds. I especially am passionate about supporting LGBTQQ2+ families.

Family and Couple Therapy

I help people of all genders and body sizes heal their relationships with food and their bodies in the face of diet culture, sizism and fatphobia.

I help address restriction, binging, and purging concerns.

I am passionate about providing effective treatment of eating disorders for people whose experiences have often been invalidated due to their body size.

Eating Disorders

I am also experienced in supporting individuals with concerns such as:

  • Depression and Anxiety

  • Motor Vehicle Accidents

  • Work and School Stress
