I am a queer, neurodivergent, polyamorous, feminist, and cisgender white woman. I am committed to anti-oppression, social justice, and the self-reflection and lifelong unlearning this requires.

I have been practicing social work since 2012 with a focus on issues related to queer and trans folks, body neutrality, harm reduction, and body-based trauma recovery modalities. While I use an eclectic range of intervention, I am formally trained in EMDR, Brainspotting, DBT, Narrative Therapy, and Motivational Interviewing.

I aim to position myself as a co-collaborator in your journey and will follow your lead. Using a feminist power-sharing framework, I believe that the therapeutic alliance and a genuine, authentic caring and attuned relationship is the foundational element of successful therapy, and so I will work hard to earn your trust and build that alliance with you.

I am most excited about working with queer and trans folks, neurodiverse folks, non-monogamous folks, and those looking to utilize EMDR for trauma recovery.
