About

The opening hour is less intense than people brace for. No rapid-fire questions, just an honest conversation about what brought you in and what you want to be different. I became a therapist because therapy changed my own life, and I have never forgotten what it feels like to sit on the other side of the room. These days I work with adults whose racing mind turns every quiet moment into a courtroom. As a lesbian, I bring my whole self to this work, and you are welcome to do exactly the same. I have accompanied many clients through a gender journey, at whatever speed feels honest to them. I know that fit matters, and I would rather you find the right person than settle for me. What I can promise is consistency, honesty, and a calm that does not crack under hard topics. An intro session is an easy way to find out whether that is what you have been missing.
