As we begin to recognize our deepest feelings, we begin to give up, of necessity, being satisfied with suffering and self-negation, and with the numbness which so often seems like their only alternative in our society.
-Audre Lorde
Transformative Relational Therapy
I know that choosing a therapist can be confusing and overwhelming, especially if you need to discuss vulnerable issues related to sexuality, gender, family, intimate partnership, depression, anxiety or trauma. I have a transparent, practical, calming, and down-to-earth style that is compassionate, socioculturally attuned and helps my clients feel understood and at ease. The commitment to psychotherapy can be both challenging and liberating. It takes courage to show up for this process of awareness and transformation. The aim is not perfection and doing it right, but to appreciate the ways in which you have continued to persist and fight for what you value and those you care about through all the messiness, conflict and struggle.
An eclectic approach
My approach is holistic, multi-dimensional, person-centered, and collaborative. I am a white identified, cisgender, queer therapist that is attentive to issues of social justice, oppression, marginalization, power and privilege. I am invested in the liberation and healing of people across age, gender, race/ethnicity, sexual orientation, size, religion and healing tradition. I have specialized knowledge and expertise in sexuality, intimacy, gender identity, relationships, depression, anxiety and trauma. I draw inspiration from a blend of Narrative therapy, Relational Therapy, Family Systems, Solution-based, Dialogic, Psychodynamic, CBT (Cognitive Behavioral Therapy), Mindfulness, EMDR (Eye Movement Desensitization & Reprocessing & IFS (Internal Family Systems Therapy)-based approaches.
