ABOUT THE WORK

I witness and support transformation in people's lives. As a peer counselor, I see myself as a mentor and friend, and a doula and guide through life's transitions and transformations. Through conversations, workshops, and skill sharing, we will explore healing outside of conventional therapy and the medical-industrial complex.

I meet with individuals up to four times a month virtually or in person to offer support around:

• Navigating relationships and polyamory
• Gender transition or other identity shifts and major life transitions
• Exploring gender transition, polyamory, or neurodivergent identities for the first time
• Healing from trauma and colonialism
• Experiencing more affirmation and validation for your identities and intersections
• Ongoing activist work or beginning your social justice praxis
• Decolonizing and ancestral trauma healing

Ultimately, my goal is to help people feel joy, expressiveness, self-acceptance, and authenticity through exploring their identities, needs, and desires; connecting them with community and a sense of belonging; and supporting them in developing a constructive analysis of the systems of oppression that may be creating harm in their lives.

My work is for everyone, but I strive to center QTBIPOC* and neurodivergent folks.

Transformational conversations about identity, gender, sexuality, kink, social justice, mental health, disability & more: finding the language to live your truth

I love processing! Through transformational conversations around identity, I help people to:

• Find more stability and congruence;
• Transform their lives and relationships;
• Make more space for creativity, openness, open-heartedness, laughing, rest, nature, hugs, trans friendship and joy, and community and expansiveness; and
• Navigate oppression, colonialism, racism, fascism, patriarchy, ancestral trauma, problematic institutions, government, rigidity and the gender binary with more deftness and ease.

You'll leave our sessions feeling seen and validated, and with tools, solid political analysis, and a sense of connection and belonging that you can carry with you into your daily life.

The power of community & belonging

Being in community can be a life-changing experience. Whether it's through activism, relationships, volunteering, or through introspection and literature, I can help you find your people and a sense of belonging.

Decolonization work, social justice organizing & mutual aid

Decolonization work takes a lot of energy, self-education, fucking up, and learning in community. I help people navigate and find ways to resist oppression, colonialism, racism, fascism, patriarchy, problematic institutions, government, rigidity and the gender binary. I work with folks who are healing ancestral trauma and intergenerational wounds.

I have a special interest in working with folks who want to be involved in social justice organizing and mutual aid, and need some help with healing and/or don't know where to start. I also help activists process and manage protest trauma and burnout.
