Welcome!

While words can never express the entirety of who we are they can ignite resonance and that is my offering here.

After decades of work in social advocacy (wealth disparity and homelessness) it was time for me to knit together learnings from this work and the wisdoms of life to create a space that would hold others in their journey.

Having the privilege of therapy myself I know the life changing benefits of being heard and understood by someone who is not only a skilled clinician but relates to your experience from a personal and lived place. I have seen that we heal in connection and understanding.

I hold difference and paradox in a way that is judgement free and expansive. You are made of multitudes and deserve respect and safety to explore this expanse and a space safe enough to choose your expression.

Those who feel like they stand apart or alone, are eccentric or often misunderstood, folks who are incredibly shy or introverted, people who struggle to find the words to express themselves - those who walk off the beaten path or find themselves curious about a different path resonate deeply with me and often feel they have found safe haven with me. I strive to work from a place of humility and curiosity - in awareness that I will continue to learn and unlearn.

Let’s meet so you can share more about what you are seeking in therapy and see if we are a fit for each other.

All people are invited and welcome with express invitation to members of my queer family.

With love 🤍

Amy
