What's My Approach to Therapy?
I’m a registered associate clinical social worker and LGBTQ2STGI+ affirmative therapist with over a decade in the film industry as an International Alliance of Theatrical Stage Employees (IATSE) camera department member. Trained in emotionally focused therapy (EFT) and certified in trauma-focused cognitive behavioral therapy (TF-CBT), palliative care, and SafeTALK suicide prevention, I work through a holistic, anti-oppressive lens that integrates parts work, somatic awareness, and creative expression.
As a queer person, film professional, and trauma survivor, I bring lived experience, compassion, and active collaboration to therapy—helping clients grow, explore, laugh, and rest. I work across the lifespan, specializing in LGBQ2STGI+ care, occupational stress, chronic or life-altering illness, and inner child reparenting. I especially value working with film industry folks, knowing firsthand the demands of life on set.
