MY THERAPEUTIC APPROACH

I aim to embody and offer a deeply relational and justice-oriented approach to my care-work.

I believe relationships hold powerful possibilities for healing and transformation. I hold this belief accountable to Western counseling-psychology’s history and the interlocking logics of ableism, white supremacy, and cis-hetero-patriarchy that informed it. These pathologizing ideologies have contributed to a lack of safety, especially for those with multiple marginalized identities, in accessing care. For so many, this means concealing parts of themselves to access and navigate care-scapes. This can be a disembodied and harmful experience.

I value the opportunity to disrupt, reimagine and offer alternatives to these experiences.

I feel honored to gratefully embrace the nuance of our intersecting identities, changing abilities, and lived experiences in this work. As a white, queer, nonbinary and neurodivergent person, I maintain a deep commitment to the process of healing and to tending to my own individual and collective response-abilities in this process.

I view healing as a profoundly relational process. A core aspiration of my care-work is to create and hold a relational container for you to build the safety to attune to your unique experiences and identities. I aim to support you in your process of embodying a more authentic and compassionate body-mind. I believe this process of embodiment can be radically healing and make space for more liberatory ways of being and relating.

Together we will cultivate a more compassionate, complex, and embodied vision of who we are through the process of growing inner space and clarity. While this process invites critical reflection, attunement, response-ability and discernment, it also demands joy, play, and imagination.
