About me:
I believe that healing is not only possible, but is liberatory. I also believe that we can’t heal from the challenges in our lives without acknowledging and working against the systems of oppression that cause it. We do not exist in a vacuum, and neither do our challenges.
I use a social justice framework in the therapy I provide for my clients. My approach is collaborative and client-centered—meaning, you, as the client, lead the way. I’m here to provide support and tools for the journey that you’re on.
I identify as a white, queer, trans, non-binary, Jewish, able-bodied, neurodivergent person, who is committed to anti-racism, disability justice, and queer and trans liberation.
I love working with children (especially trans kids!) and have over 10 years of experience working with children and teens both in childcare and in clinical settings.
I received a bachelor’s degree in sociology and gender studies from Grinnell College in 2012. I am a licensed independent clinical social worker (LW 61432344), and received an MSW from the University of Washington in 2017, with a focus on community-centered integrative practice. I have 10 years of experience working within queer and trans communities, and completed a 1-year clinical training program through MEND Seattle where I learned to apply a social justice framework to individual counseling.
