About

What if you're not ready to quit, just done with the way things keep going? That question is welcome here. You don't need a rock-bottom story or a polished plan to reach out. I came to this work after years in a completely different field, and I still think like a builder: start where things stand, not where they should be. My practice is rooted in harm reduction, which means we take your safety and your goals seriously without demanding perfection. As a gender expansive therapist, I know how much easier honesty gets when you aren't bracing to be misread. I lean on motivational interviewing, so instead of lecturing you about change, I help you get clear on what you actually want and why. Sessions with me are casual in tone and serious in intent. Expect plain speech, honest questions, and zero shame. If any of this sounds like what you've been hoping to find, I'd be glad to hear from you.
