Affirming Care for "Alternative" Lifestyles

Focused on providing services to individuals and partners across the gender, sexuality, and relationship spectrums, including LGBTQIA2S+, Non-Monogamy, and BDSM/Kink. My goal is for you to feel comfortable discussing all aspects of your life without fear of judgment, and to work collaboratively to affect positive change.

About

My specialties include helping clients with concerns around relationships, identity, and general mental health difficulties including anxiety, depression, and compulsive behaviors. My approach to treatment is eclectic, utilizing interventions grounded in the belief that effective therapy focuses on a whole person rather than a diagnosis. I provide services exclusively via secure telehealth platforms, to California residents. I believe people are multifaceted and full of strengths and resilience, and that therapy provides tools to help you utilize the unique things that make you who you are to overcome difficulties. Our life experiences color the way we see ourselves; however, through altering patterns of thought, attachment style, and reactions, we can begin to see the world differently, and live more authentically.
