Do you feel like you don't fit in and/or are watching the world through a window? Does life feel overwhelming and simple errands or hangouts with friends lead you to need a few days to recover? Are you looking to learn more about who you are, what you need to succeed, and how to live within your capacity? You've come to the right place! I work with queer and neurodivergent clients to answer those questions, explore identity, and cultivate relationships that work for you (whether it's a monogamous one or not)!
My approach is affirming your story and collaborative, giving you the chance to provide feedback and ask for what feels beneficial to your healing. I am comfortable navigating gender and sexuality, sex &intimacy, relationships, neurodivergence and disabilities (including chronic pain and illness). I also include hobbies and geek culture when appropriate.
I believe that you feeling safe, secure and comfortable with your counsellor is the key to successful therapy. If you think I may be a fit, please reach out and schedule a consultation or session with me (if you're expecting an email please check your SPAM folder. Initial responses can end up there). I look forward to meeting you and seeing what is possible!
