About

I provide affirming and person-centered counseling for queer and neurodivergent clients who may be looking for alternative treatment modalities such as somatic counseling, expressive arts therapy, or a blended approach incorporating queer and feminist theory & disability justice. I have extensive experience with trauma, and with substance use disorders and co-occurring diagnoses. My ideal clients are out-of-the-box, divergent thinkers, neuroqueers, activists + artists, and sensitive souls with big questions. I became a counselor to support clients through grief & loss, chronic illness, disability, and chronic pain. My training and experience has included focus on: Trauma Resiliency, Grief and Loss, Chronic Illness, Identity Loss/Exploration, Depression, Anxiety, Addiction and Recovery, PTSD, Domestic Violence Living in the rural Southwest allowed me to form relationship and community with many Native people, including mulitcultural client relationships.
