About My Clients

Attachment focused relationship therapy from a sex-positive lens for queer and/or trans people. I support people looking for more effective communication with their partner(s), and more insight into the ways that each of our attachment wounds shows up in our intimate relationships. I work with people wanting to explore their gender and sexuality, and what it means to them in the context of their relationships.

My Background and Approach

I am trained in PACT, a couples counseling approach that focuses on building attachment and healing family of origin trauma so people can show up the way they want in their relationships. Practicing since 2005, My mission is to support my clients with a compassionate, creative approach using an attachment and trauma-informed framework, connecting the way we were raised with how our relationships work (or don’t work for us) as adults. I enjoy helping people explore their gender (or lack of gender) in a safe environment. I come to this work from an existential perspective and love helping people explore concepts such as identity, personal meaning, freedom and change. In relationship work/couples counseling, I want to help people develop healthy connections and attachments to the people they love and to themselves I believe that my clients are the experts in their relationship, and it is my job and honor to help coach and guide them into more effective ways of relating.

My Personal Beliefs and Interests

I believe that there are many right ways to live our lives, and each person is the expert on themselves. I enjoy giving people the space to safely explore who they are and who they would like to become. I am a Health at Every Size provider, and enjoy helping people heal their relationship with their body through thinking, feeling and doing. I am trans, queer and polyamorous, and believe that when therapists share about their relationship style, it de-stigmatizes ethical non-monogamy for everyone. I see gender as a spectrum, and often one that changes and evolves for people as they age. The less people are forced to adhere to the gender binary, the freer everyone is to be their true selves.

I offer online counseling in the following states:
