About
I am a hypermobile and queer systemic therapist primarily working with people impacted by chronic illness. The experiences that come with chronic illness and hypermobility are definitely unique, and it can be very impactful to finally see a provider who gets it. Wherever you've been, I've likely been there (or near there) too.
I use somatic therapy and other techniques. I adjust my approach and offer accommodations based on your unique goals and accessibility needs.
Therapy for people with chronic illness, by someone with chronic illness
Whether you're feeling off and looking for answers, or you've received one or many diagnoses, therapy can be a vital place of support on your chronic illness journey. From processing medical gaslighting and grief, to learning to advocate for yourself, to finding ways to simply exist in your body from one day to the next, chronic illness therapy can help you find more moments of ease, joy, and alignment among the moments of challenge and pain.
