TELEHEALTH ONLY, THROUGHOUT STATE OF COLORADO
Drawing from my 35+ year career as a professor of anthropology specializing in sexuality, gender, marriage and partnering patterns, I am offering my knowledge and deep analysis with singles, couples and multiple-partner configurations. I am especially skilled at working with culturally diverse populations and issues including Polygamy, Arranged Marriage vs. Love Marriage, Culturally Imposed Virginity, Polyamory, Swinging, Cheating, Sexual Assault Accusations, Cybersex/Sexting, BDSM/Kink practices and LBGTQ identities.
My sessions offer a unique perspective drawing from years of research and teaching that can include reflection on history, culture, biology, psychology, ritual and spirituality. I may be one of the least judgmental and most insightful professionals you will ever meet!
My goal is to enable you to understand the social, cultural and family structures that have led you to seek help. Once we establish the ways the world around you has inhibited the core expression of all you can be and how you might love, we will work to reposition harmful and limiting paradigms. Working with me can be a deep adventure in discovering “what else is possible.”

As someone with the interest and courage to follow your heart, you find there are a number of questions that arise with a need for objective, educated, unbiased and helpful answers as you proceed to explore a new path in relationships. I have many years of experience with alternative lifestyles. My approach is to listen to YOU - there is not a simple answer for everyone. You need YOUR solution, not everyone else’s. I will listen thoroughly, discuss, and then offer all possible options for you to make an informed decision. I offer ideas that have worked for others in the poly lifestyle and allow you to pick and choose.
What are not as apparent as ideas are the various feelings that subtly arise - fears, doubts, jealousy, anxiety, anger, depression…and all need to be recognized, processed and understood. We aren’t as aware of our feelings as we are of our ideas and thoughts, and feelings drive our behavior. We act out at times and don’t understand why, or where that behavior came from. Understanding is the best management process - you can't control what you don’t understand.
My fees are reasonable - I will work with you so that the fee doesn’t interfere with your receiving the assistance you need. I respect your individual desires, needs and wants. I am available for a brief phone interview.

I believe a welcoming, safe, and supportive therapeutic environment is the key to emotional healing and personal growth. Working together, we will make sense of whatever has become a problem for you in the ‘here and now’ or enduring issues with their roots in the past. My hope is you will not only gain clarity and insight but know you have been understood in the context of your history, gender, sexuality and culture. I believe often when we are faced with fears linked to uncertainty, uncontrollability and unpredictability or feeling hopeless about the future, counselling/psychotherapy can support us to make a lasting change.
Integrative Psychotherapist framework draws from CBT and Psychodynamic modalities. I work with individual Adults 18+ with Anxiety and Depression and Low Mood.
ONLINE PRACTICE LOCATED IN THE UK

As a neurodivergent person, moving through a world built for neurotypical people can be an overwhelming and disempowering experience. When social pressure or trauma leads you to mask who you really are, it can lead to depression, anxiety, stress, and/or a sense of not inhabiting or controlling your own body. Sometimes, the more you try to fit in, the more alienated you become from yourself and those around you.
As a highly sensitive, autistic, queer, and poly woman, I am passionate about supporting neurodivergent people with oppressed genders, sexual identities, and relationship styles by providing a safe haven to unmask and live more authentically. We collaborate to develop tools to compassionately and courageously navigate the world. I am deeply committed to building a non-judgemental, curious, and compassionate space.
I invite you to visit my website to schedule a free 20-minute consultation so we can talk more about your needs, curiosities, fears, and desires for therapy. I would be honored to be part of your journey.
I offer individual, group, and relationship/couples counseling, as well as therapeutic support for parents and caregivers with neurodivergent children of any age. Please see my website for further descriptions of each of these services.
I am poly- and kink-positive and sex-worker allied. I am anti-racist, anti-ableist, LGBTQIA+-affirming, and culturally sensitive.
I specialize in working with couples and 2+ partnerships, in which one or more of the partners identifies as queer, trans, bi, and/or pansexual. I support the members of these partnerships in building fulfillment and security in their relationships, while also enjoying full expression of their identities. I help each person regulate and understand their own system, in order to have more freedom in the ways they show up with each other. I also work with queer and poly identified individuals who want to develop pride, comfort and agency, and work on their relationships to themselves and others.
I work relationally, creatively and somatically, using tools from Somatic Experiencing and Internal Family Systems Therapy. Our work together will offer tools to help you regulate your nervous system by tuning into your sensations. You will learn ways to support conflicting parts of yourself from a grounded place, so they can work together fluidly.
Working collaboratively with my clients, I provide highly attuned, queer, trans, poly, health at any size, neurodivergent, BIPOC-affirming therapeutic space. I believe a strong relationship between therapist and client is essential to growth and healing. I will work to meet you, and respond directly to your desires for your therapeutic experience.
I see clients over telehealth in CA, with opportunities to meet in person in the Bay Area several times a year. In WA, I can offer telehealth or Eco Therapy in Seward Park in Seattle. Home visits are also available in certain situations, when appropriate or necessary for treatment.

Officially, MA in “Couple and Family Therapy” (But I’d rather call it Relationship Therapy) from Adler University - Chicago Campus
I’m about to submit my application to get my “Associate in Marriage and Family Therapy (AMFT)” Associate License for Illinois, but that will take some time to process. I’m currently practicing under my supervisor, Erin Matthews’ LCSW license. License: Illinois / 149013216
Co-creating a brave space where my clients can work on the relationships with the special people in their life, be it their partner(s), children, other family members, friends, and others, is what I am deeply passionate about. I enjoy working with couples, polycules, families, and people with other types of relationships. Relational therapy offers a unique opportunity for people to grow, heal from painful experiences, and build healthier relationships, whatever that looks like for each client. I will support you and your relationships along our therapeutic journey together by centering your unique strengths, needs, and goals.
I utilize Family and Relational Systemic Theory, Intersectional Feminist-Informed Theory, and Culturally Affirming Therapy with my clients. This includes, but is not limited to: culturally affirming therapy for Black, Indigenous, and People of Color (BIPOC), the Latine community, the LGBTQ2SIA+ community, and those at the intersection of these communities. When working with clients, I will consider all their dimensions of culture and their intersectionality.
I provide individual, relational (for couples, polycules, constellations, and more), and family therapy (families of origin and chosen families), always utilizing a systemic lens. When working with couples, polycules, and constellations: I utilize Emotionally Focused Therapy (EFT), Attachment Theory, and Narrative Therapy. I strive to provide the most affirming space for my clients. In addition to therapy in English, I can also provide therapy in Spanish.
It is truly an honor and privilege to witness and support clients and their relationships throughout their therapeutic journey. I look forward to working with each client along their unique life path.
I'M PRACTICING VIRTUALLY FROM CHICAGO, ILLINOIS.
