The Work of Therapy

I work predominantly with folks in the LGBTQ+ community navigate feelings and experiences of uncertainty, loss of hope, burn out, shame, or challenges in relationships.

My clients and I face these struggles together in a collaborative, therapeutic alliance. Despite their tenacity, creativity, humor, and deep compassion for a better world they remained feeling disconnected or fearful.

When they first come in, they are isolated, fatigued, or full of self-loathing. Fostering a sense of compassion and trust with their Self seems impossible at first.

They were raised believing that you’re not allowed to feel good about their desires. They would instead shrink certain aspects of themselves and their likes or interests.

They worry that if they risk moving towards their wants and desires it would mean possible loss and regret. They fear feeling powerful and proud of what makes them unique.

They come to learn that their sexual/erotic selves are as important as all other parts of themselves. We work to embrace and shine on all aspects of who we are, and in doing so we find that our “shadows” are our strongest gifts.

Like my clients, you deserve to feel connected and joyful in your body, and in your relationships.

Ending each day feeling safe, restored, and hopeful is not out of reach.

It can be scary moving towards our desires. It means change is underway. If you are feeling ready to be more fully embodied, I would love to help you get there.

Each of us is allowed to take risks. Reach out today to set up a free consult.
