Are you exploring or experimenting with gender or sexuality?

Are you feeling stress related to expressing your authentic gender or sexuality?

Are you feeling confused or conflicted about your thoughts or feelings regarding gender or sex?

I understand!

After navigating my own path to discovering my authentic experience and expression of gender and sexuality 13 years ago, I turned all of my energy towards helping others find their own truth and freedom.

As a clinical psychologist, I also noticed how those in my community seemed to be facing higher rates of distress, and began researching why this was.

For more than 10 years I contributed research, taught courses, and published books and articles on mental health risk and resilience in sexual and gender diverse people.

I have also developed therapeutic methods for supporting gender and sexual minority people in therapy, through periods of self-discovery and the challenges of minority stress and body dysphoria, and still provide training, consultation, and supervision to other therapists on this topic.

I bring all of this experience - personal and profession - to my work with you. I aim to create a space free of shame, where you feel safe to explore what you know and don’t know, and where you find hope, joy, and self-love.
