I am a graduate of the University of Massachusetts, Boston, School of Psychology and hold a Masters of Science. I provided therapy to intersex, transgender, and clients experiencing transition regret at Life Healing Center, one of the premiere residential treatment centers in America for trauma, addiction and co-occurring psychiatric disorders in Santa Fe, New Mexico. I have worked with many teens and young adults navigating gender distress and noticed a need for family and friends to have the space to process their own feelings and thoughts about shifting family and friend dynamics related to gender distress.
I provide a safe therapeutic space for family and friends of gender questioning, ROGD teens and young adults, young people desisting, and young people who may be experiencing transition regret to meet and share openly and in confidence in a supportive and compassionate environment.
