I am a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist and I studied Counseling Psychology at the California Institute of Integral Studies (CIIS) with a specialization in Somatic Psychotherapy. Much of my seven years of therapeutic experience comes from my time serving marginalized communities in various Community Mental Health Settings. My current practice focuses on providing trauma-informed psychodynamic psychotherapy to adults and adolescents who identify (or think they may identify) with being part of the LGBT, Queer, Poly, Gender Non-Conforming and Kinky communities. I have a passion for social justice issues and exploring how systems of oppression impact marginalized communities. I use a harm reduction approach for those who use substances, and I’m also enthusiastic about creating a safe space to explore and integrate themes that may arise during the course of a psychedelic journey. My approach is eclectic and holistic for those who are facing symptoms of depression, anxiety, and low self-esteem. I am also thrilled to be a member of the Health at Every Size (HAES) community, and I strive to provide competent care for all bodies.
I don’t currently accept insurance and my fee is $180 per 50 minutes of psychotherapy. I am able to provide a “Superbill” which can be submitted to your insurance for reimbursement.
