      <image:title>Trauma - Trauma</image:title>
      <image:caption>When we think of trauma generally, we might think of “Big T” events like auto accidents, natural disasters, witnessing or experiencing violence, which are all things people generally associate with trauma. While these are all valid, there are also “Little t” events, which can build inside of us like a kettle about to boil. The byproducts of living in the modern world (extended periods of stress, feeling overwhelmed with what we must accomplish day to day) can catch up to us, exhaust us, and be extremely detrimental to our well being. These “Little t” events also include experiences like bullying, repeated negative experiences in a particular setting (like doctors offices, interacting with authority figures), or micro-aggressions in the workplace or out in the community. All of these forms of trauma and disruption in day to day life can warrant seeking therapy. I can help guide you through feeling overwhelmed, exhausted, hyper-vigilant, or having a strong fear response. I can help give you the why; Why does your body react to certain situations negatively, why does your brain not allow you access to certain events that you may be trying to work through. Often, we can feel without a place to turn in order to work through these confusing parts of ourselves. Everyone deserves a safe space to discuss these situations in their life.</image:caption>

      <image:title>Sex Therapy &amp; Relational Therapy - Sex Therapy, Individual &amp; Relational</image:title>
      <image:caption>I believe that every person deserves to experience a healthy and satisfying sex life, free of shame. If you have been feeling like you are facing an internal struggle around your sexual interests or desires, it can sometimes feel all-consuming, becoming the only thing that you notice, even feeling like there are opposing forces at work making it difficult to come together to a point of understanding and fulfillment with yourself, or your partner(s). When things are off at home or in the bedroom (or outside of it, why be limited?) it can impact us deeply. It can be difficult to establish a firm understanding of our own sexual needs and wants when we are finding push back either internally, from a partner, or the outside world. I am able and comfortable exploring a wide variety of issues that relate to sex and sexuality. I offer a non-judgmental and collaborative environment for you and your partner(s) to work on your relationships, sexual practices, and overall well being. My practice is sex positive, kink knowledgeable, and affirmative of consensually non-monogamous relationships. There is no judgement about your desires when we work together. If this sounds like the kind of therapeutic support you are seeking, click the button below for a free, 20 minute consultation with me.  Common issues I work with: Desire discrepancy (misaligned libido) in relationship Sexual shame Problematic/compulsive sexual behavior or urges Struggles with relationship to porn or erotic imagery Issues accessing orgasm Exploration of gender identity Exploration of sexual and/or romantic orientation Exploration of kinks/BDSM/fetishes Genito-Pelvic Pain or Penetration Disorder (vaginismus &amp; dyspareunia ) Painful sex Erectile disappointment Issues concerning sexual arousal and desire Issues concerning sexual interest Sexually or relationally focused OCD Sexual issues due to trauma Sexual issues related to Autism and/or ADHD or other forms of neurodivergence Trust ruptures due to infidelity Attachment based issues Navigating consensual non-monogamy (polyamory, swinging, open relationships, kink dynamics, etc.) Relational communication struggles due to mixed neurotype relationships Relational or individual struggles due to trauma and/or stress</image:caption>

      <image:title>Rates - What to Expect</image:title>
      <image:caption>I believe we are worthy and deserve dignity, safety and belonging. As a provider I work with clients to look at sex therapy through a holistic and multidimensional approach. I want to work to ensure that not only you are seen as an individual but that all of your experiences are informing your present. I approach therapy through the lenses of systemic Liberation Psychology, Queer Theory, and Feminist Theory. I endeavor to do my best to do anti-oppression work that is trauma aware. A high priority for me is offering a welcoming space where you are supported in being your authentic self. When working together you will find that I practice and hold harm reduction as a therapeutic tool. I am a health at every size practitioner. I am sex positive, kink knowledgeable, affirming of consensual non-monogamy (polyamory, swinging, relationship anarchy, open relationships, etc.), and sex worker friendly. I am neuro-inclusive and see both professional assessment and self assessment as having value. I have a focus on LGBTGEQIAP+ populations and those who love us. In addition to this I also offer an affirming approach with non-religious and/or atheist individuals, as well as those who are part of marginalized religions and/or belief systems.  I strive to create a relationship in session where each client feels safe enough to explore vulnerability, is challenging enough to support growth, and rooted in the belief that a client’s uniqueness is inherently valuable. People deserve to be seen, heard, and deeply known. This is how I view the world, and how I approach sessions with those seeking to explore themselves and their relationship with others.  My practice is holistic, relational, integrative, and individualized. I view therapy through the bio-psycho-social model, and am especially interested in the mind-body connection. Because of this I often utilize embodiment exercises and work with polyvagal theory, and other somatic therapies. For trauma work I am currently in EMDR therapy training, which is an option for those who wish to use that approach. My approach is relational, and can sometimes be directive when that is right for the individual client. As an autistic therapist I can be rather blunt and to the point, but always coming from a place of kindness and compassion, which is something that many clients enjoy about me. While I have education and training, I respect that you are the expert of your own experience and I do my best to create a space where you feel supported in your own individual journey.  During my master’s internship I worked primarily with transgender individuals, those who have been marginalized due to being part of the LGBTGEQIAP+ populations, and those who experienced trauma. I am always learning and growing and do my best to remain humble. I want my clients to feel comfortable coming to me with feedback. This is a collaborative process, and I want to make sure that you feel seen and heard. Client feedback helps me to continue to grow as a practitioner and a community member. In short I believe that every person deserves to enjoy a life free from shame and access to what brings them joy and safety and if that is what you are looking for click the button below to schedule a free 20 minute consultation with me.</image:caption>

      <image:caption>I work with a diverse population of clients from various backgrounds who are experiencing distress and are seeking a place to feel seen and supported. I want to note that these type of sessions will be conducted with the same holistic approach and care that my clients seeking sex and relational therapy receive. Clients often seek me out for support with: Autism ADHD Complex trauma / C-PTSD Processing and healing trauma Spiritual / religious trauma Enmeshment Attachment distress/ruptures/wounds Body image issues Gender affirming menopause support Emotional regulation Minority stress Existential struggles Identity struggles Anxiety Depression Dissociation, including identifying as plural/system Post Traumatic Stress / PTSD Gender dysphoria Body dysmorphia Navigating sexual orientation Navigating gender identity Navigating relational issues Navigating life transitions Navigating capitalism and colonialism and how these impact our lives Ancestral and cultural healing work Embodiment and somatic connection Creative blocks Reconnecting to spirit and/or spiritual practice and/or finding one that is nurturing. Supportive and healing decolonized ritual creation</image:caption>

      <image:title>Our Approach - Our Approach</image:title>
      <image:caption>We work from a liberation framework, focused on antiracism, decolonization, and social justice. Liberation psychology is a direct response to the harms of traditional psychology, which has often been criticized for seeing individuals as the source of their own distress. This approach considers the context in which we exist—and how that affects our experiences and relationships—instead of being neutral or examining issues in a vacuum. The field of liberation psychology comes out of Latin America, and we specifically credit Ignacio Martín‑Baró for his pioneering of this framework. In line with this orientation, we support reparations, the Land Back movement, anti-saneism &amp; Mad Pride movements, and trans rights, and we are vehemently anti-genocide. All those who support liberation for all are welcome here.</image:caption>
