My Practice
Co-creating a supportive place to organize, heal, and experiment together.
As a chronically ill, queer care worker, I am invested in care and solidarity practices that tend to our collective survival in late stage capitalism and empire. This may include tending to contradictions; sustaining, resting, resourcing within and beyond therapy; and intertwining reclaimed truths and stories with our dreams for a liberatory future.
I am not an expert of you, and I value your agency, autonomy, and body-mind-spirit wisdom in this shared space. Sessions are often a non-linear, gently paced process. I may be a witness and hold a compassionate container, but my approach is never to “fix” you, but rather be a grounding, resourceful presence along your journey. I invite play, curiosity, and slowness in our explorations, and being open to co-defining what this work can look like together. I welcome non-traditional languages, rituals, and practices that resonate with you. I invite us to move at the speed of trust, with co-possibilities for holding the layers of struggles, joys, dreams, and reflections with an abundance of care.
My practice centers QTBIPOC / POGM, disabled / chronically ill and neurodivergent communities with complex trauma. I work with COVID cautious + realist folks, artists + organizers, plural / system-identified folks, sex workers, polyamorous and kink relationships, and multiply marginalized comrades.
