Individual Counseling

I work with individual adults, teens, and children (aged 6 and up) of all identities who want to work through challenges they may be facing in their everyday lives. I can work with you through the following:

• Anxiety

• Depression

• LGBTQ sexuality and gender identity questions

• Relationship challenges (including poly and kink)

• Social anxiety and social skill development

• Stress related to school and work

• Finding pride in Autism, ADHD, and other forms of neurodivergence

• Ableism and challenges that stem from being disabled or neurodivergent in an ableist society

• Trauma and PTSD

• Coping skills

• Family conflict

• And more!

I offer sessions both in person and via telehealth.

Gender Affirming Care Consultation

I have many years of experience providing education and consultation for groups and organizations of all kinds—medical practices, senior centers, religious groups, summer camps, parent groups, university classes, teen classes, and more on how to create welcoming, affirming spaces for transgender and LGBTQ+ individuals.

I also provide education and consultation on understanding the mental health needs of transgender and queer kids and teens.

I would be more than happy to speak with you and your organization about providing consultation.
