Your best therapist is a witness to your life. Your hope is that if your pain and struggle is seen by another, so will your desires, resilience, and resourcefulness. My place in your therapy is to see you, hear you, and reflect your power back to you. Sharing your journey lets me witness your transformations, big and small. I see and ask: How has systemic oppression affected you, your family, and your communities? I work with Clients anywhere on the spectrums of gender/sexuality, (non)religion, ability, and cultural & racial identity; who express body and sex positivity everywhere from asexual to kink…monogamous to poly…and beyond.

My Master’s degree in Clinical Psychology from Antioch University, Los Angeles focuses on identities that foster Equity, Diversity, Inclusion, and Social Justice. I use a Narrative lens to see the many stories informing your identity. I listen for legacies scaffolding your inner values. My senses are attuned to Family Systems, Dialectical Behavior, and Jungian/Depth psychology modalities.

I invite you to entertain the idea of You as a Living Myth on a Hero’s Journey. For the Hero of the Myth is born into a challenge to uncover an identity of wholeness and freedom in the midst of a fractured society. I offer online video therapy until in-person sessions become viable. I am open to phone calls when preferred. CA residents may use either option.
