Individual Therapy
Whether online or at my office in Ukiah, CA, my specialty is supporting creative and sensitive people who cope with feeling like an outsider in a capitalist, heteronormative society, especially in rural areas where therapists with subculture experience can be harder to find. My clients appreciate my non-judgmental approach to taboo topics and honesty about my own related experiences. Though they have diverse identities and experiences, what they have in common is a experience of oppression that leads to depression, anxiety, suicidal thoughts, and symptoms of complex trauma. They use therapy to learn ways to find self acceptance, regulate emotions, and cope with things both past and present that they cannot change. I believe we all deserve to feel better so that we can live lives with connection, purpose, and meaning. I and some of my clients have used therapy to explore:
Gender Identity & Transition
Sex, Sexuality, and Relationship Styles - including Lesbian, Gay Bisexual, Queer, BDSM, Fetishes, Polyamory, etc.
Perfectionism
Transition to Adulthood
Chronic Pain and Invisible Disability
Depression, Anxiety, and Bipolar Disorder
Trauma Recovery (PTSD and Complex PTSD)
Gender Transition Documents
If you are not seeking therapy, I can provide gender affirming documents, including the "therapist letter" to affirm to insurers that someone is a candidate for medical transition treatments or procedures after a short interview. If a letter is all you need, please schedule "Medical Transition Letter" through the client portal instead of an initial consult. I will send you a questionnaire to get us started so I can complete the letter during our appointment.
Gender Transition Coaching
I can also provide coaching for gender transition for adults or for transitioning youth and their families/legal guardian(s). If you are seeking this service, please let me know when you contact me so I can include the relevant paperwork in your intake packet. For more information about how this differs from therapy, click the link above.
Fees and Insurance
Sliding Scale: $60 - 140 Click here more information to help you decide where you fit on the scale.
I am in the application process to become a Beacon provider and hope to be accepting MediCal by April 2020. For other insurance or health savings accounts (HSA/FSA), I can provide you with a super bill or receipt to seek reimbursement. Coaching and online sessions may not be covered by your insurance.
