I believe in an eclectic and client-empowering approach to therapy. To me, therapy is a team effort where the client is an expert in themselves and their life, and I contribute my knowledge or therapy and psychology. Since everyone is different, the approach will be different for each person. I believe strongly in anti-oppressive practices and working actively and continually to confront racism in myself and wherever I have influence. I work to be inclusive and affirming for all clients with marginalized identities and backgrounds -Affirming of gender and sexual diversity -Body and fat liberation approach -Goofy, direct, nerdy, and authentic -Emphasis on intersectionality, systemic impacts, and liberation
Interventions: -Gestalt -Mindfulness -Play therapy -Family systems -Person-centered therapy -Grief counseling -Feminist and liberation psychology techniques
Special interests: -Playfulness for adults -Healing relationships to eating & our bodies -Disability justice -Nonbinary identities -Interracial interactions -Trauma-informed care -Consensual Non-monogamy -Self-identified nerds, dorks, weirdos, freaks, and geeks
14+ Primarily focused on 2SLGBTQIA+ clients and eating disorder/body image concerns.
