"We all have a hungry heart, and one of the things we hunger for is happiness.” - Mary Oliver
I believe in every person's innate nature to heal. We all have a hungry heart to be happy, to be connected to others, and openly love those in our life. But sometimes we struggle to see how and need a little help.
Therapeutic Approach
I use a combination of Narrative Therapy, Emotionally Focused Therapy, and a Systems approach. My speciality is sexualities, gender, and relationship therapy
Background
I have worked in the field of gender, sexualities, and identity for the last 12 years. I split my time between teaching at a local university and counseling. As a therapist, I have a strong specialization in sexual intimacy/trauma work, couples and family therapy, as well as grief work.
