With 25+ yrs as a therapist, I help people break out of depressive cycles, heal from trauma and feel more relaxed. With a warm, non-judgmental approach I'll help you break free from negative patterns. Tell me your goals, what do you really want? We will create a plan to get there, step by step. Our work will focus on having a healthy relationship with self and others. I have been a trauma therapist, utilizing EMDR, since 1999. I prefer to work with individuals and do not see couples for therapy.
My practice focuses on supporting the emotional growth and healing of pansexual, bisexual, lesbian, gay men, asexual, and queer-identified people. Questioning individuals are always welcome.
>>Se Habla Espanol-BIMPOC folks welcoming.
In addition to general mental health I am a Gender Therapist who has been working with non binary, transgender, agender, intersex, and gender expansive individuals since 1999. In addition, those who may decide to re-transition or who are choosing another gender pathway are welcome.
As a gender therapist, my role is to facilitate internal exploration and remove obstacles in your coming out process. While transitioning may be the right decision for many, I also work with individuals to find subtle or creative ways to express their gender identity.As a WPATH GEI SOC8 Certified Member, I provide professional, experienced support throughout your journey.
Currently, I offer only video sessions.
Book a free introductory video meeting through my private practice group's website, Authentic-Alliance.com, to see if I am a good fit.
For therapists, I offer individual and monthly group consultation on their clinical work with transgender and gender-diverse clients. I am also a Certified WPATH Mentor and offer individual and group mentorship meetings toward WPATH certification.
