My approach to therapy is rooted in the notion that identity is an experience continuously in process. Drawing from range of both psychodynamic and behavioral theories and techniques, my goals as a therapist are to work collaboratively with individuals and couples to explore the interior experiences that have shaped their present realities, behaviors, challenges, and goals. I work primarily with individuals to address a range of challenges including identity, gender, sexuality, family/relational, to more complex mood and emotion regulation symptoms and diagnoses.

 

Before joining Liam Cudmore’s practice, I trained and worked primarily with adolescent, young adult, and adult populations facing serious and/or chronic trauma including severe PTSD resulting from various forms of violence and abuse, such as sexual violence, carceral violence, discrimination, and oppression. I have worked with populations including veterans transitioning from the military to civilian life, incarcerated individuals, individuals involved in the criminal and family justice systems, LGBQ, T/GNB, and sex worker survivors of sexual and/or interpersonal violence. In addition to doing private practice work. I also currently work with people in recovery for eating disorders and other psychiatric disorders including BPD, OCD, depression, anxiety disorders, and/or C-PTSD. I have received extensive training in CBT, CBT-E, and DBT from Behavioral Tech and am currently training in various exposure techniques for working with PTSD, anxiety, and extreme emotion. 

 

My approach to therapy is grounded in intersectional, anti-oppressive, queer, trans, and gender theories, as well as my own personal experiences as a non-binary (they/them) white-passing queer person. I strive to offer an affirming space for TGNC/GNB and LGBQ individuals, as well as members of the BDSM/kink and poly communities, to creatively explore their various identities, relationship configurations, and sexualities in.
