My Bio
As a fat, queer, and non-binary therapist, I bring a unique and inclusive perspective to the therapeutic process. My work is grounded in creating a space where all identities are respected and celebrated. I understand the importance of affirming environments, especially for those who navigate multiple marginalized identities. My approach is deeply empathetic, collaborative, and tailored to each client’s individual needs.
I believe in the power of therapy as a tool for healing, self-discovery, and empowerment. My approach is integrative, drawing from Queer theory, Psychodynamic theory, Existential theory, among others, with a strong emphasis on intersectionality and social justice. I strive to create a space where clients can explore their identities and build resilience in the face of societal pressures and discrimination.
As someone who continues to navigate the complexities of my own identity, I am passionate about helping others find their voice and reclaim their power. I am committed to providing a supportive and affirming environment where clients can be their authentic selves.
In my personal time, I enjoy singing, reading, and playing board games. I believe in the importance of self-care and strive to live a life that reflects the values I bring into the therapy room.
