ABOUT

Headshot of Christy smiling wearing a salmon colored top with blue denim collar and necklace against a brick wall backdrop

I support queer, non-monogamous, polyamorous, kinky, and sexually-minoritized individuals, relationships, and groups through a process of safely exploring and integrating the events, identities, and stories that shape your sense of yourself, cultivating a sense of wonder, compassion, and clarity to offer your inner world as you explore and seek to live a Self-led life. 

I am a deeply relational person and therapist, believing that if we can build open and genuine relationships with one another where we are permitted to be our true self, we feel more satisfaction and more wholeness in our daily lives. In my vision of therapeutic work, building open and genuine relationships means journeying compassionately together through your various contexts with the intention of understanding more completely what we find there. I do this by both guiding and joining you in more fully exploring your thoughts, feelings, beliefs, behaviors, family life and history, current relationships of all kinds, spirituality, sexuality, dreams, values, hopes, desires, and more. I believe that being a loving and affirming witness to your inner exploration can repair negative views you may carry about yourself, paving the way for you to feel more integrated and whole.

I use various approaches in my therapeutic work to support and structure your exploration. These approaches include Internal Family Systems to help you sift and sort through your internal experiences; emotion-focused therapy to uncover and affirm emotional experiences that drive relationships and interactions; existential therapy to situate your experiences within the much larger scope of shared human conditions; somatic approaches to connect with and recover the body as a source of knowledge and wisdom; process-oriented exploration that allows us to zoom in on subtle, less-familiar phenomena that influence your life experiences; and psychodynamic and attachment approaches that make sense of your experiences by understanding and connecting to your personal history and attachment relationships.

 

I endeavor to offer a radically affirming, cooperative, and relational space in which you feel held, valued, and centered in this healing process. I believe that gentle and curious inquiry into discomfort can show us the heart of our pain and illuminate a path to wholeness and healing.

If this feels like a good fit, please reach out to get started! I am eager to meet you.

Ceasefire Statement:

I acknowledge and condemn the State of Israel's U.S.-funded acts of genocide against the Palestinian people and call for an immediate and permanent ceasefire. I offer this statement as a demonstration of my belief that healing is rooted in genuine and accountable relationships, and to align with my values of anti-racism and speaking out against dehumanization and oppression. I welcome open dialogue about this issue or this statement in our therapeutic work.
