therapy and consultation for
Outsiders, Change Makers, and Healers
About Me
I help people align their lives with their hearts when oppressive forces tell them to stay put. Trust is central to our work, since your relationship with me will be one of the most critical factors in your healing. I will meet you with an open heart, and a lot of realness.
Together, we can shift your relationships with the problems in your life and reclaim what is most precious to you.
I'll be honest, I don't always get it right. I take my power as a professional very seriously, and am always looking for ways to limit its influence. I emphasize consent and will often ask what you most want to feel or connect to in our session. I also offer moments to pause, give feedback, or change direction during our time.
I believe that caring for each other with open hearts will change the world. That’s why I hope you will take the first step toward healing, and contact me to set up a consultation today.
“You are beautiful just as you are and your contributions to this world are both necessary and unique. If you are ever feeling alone or unloved, please remember this.”

My Values
My practice was born out of a desire to provide affirming, open-hearted, inclusive care to the outsiders of the world. I study with a therapist who, when asked if something is normal, says “well does it bother you?” There are far too many things in this world shaped by white supremacy and all its attendant oppressions. In the face of this, I strive to stand against oppression in all its forms, and to fight for racial, body and trans liberation.
