I find that my skill and experience are very helpful to people who have survived trauma. I work often with folks who are burdened with emotional, physical, and sexually traumatic histories. I also welcome you to contact me if you are questioning your gender identity. I have assisted many people move through the difficult process of confirming their internal gender identity with the labels attached at birth. I also welcome you to come and chat if you are exploring an alternative family structure such as polyamory. My work with the GLBTIQ folks is an ongoing mutual exploration of meeting and overcoming the challenges we face in a sometimes less than accepting and often a punishing culture. I am excited about my work assisting polyamory relationships. Advanced training and practice with therapeutic tools like EMDR, Internal Family Systems, Gestalt, and Group Work support my work. I am also Transgender and an active supporter of the work to strengthen the lives of persons who fit under GLBTQI umbrella.
