Services Offered
Group Therapy
Group therapy can help you connect with others who may be experiencing similar stuff. My values when it comes to group therapy are all about connection, community building, access, and equity. I offer several groups per year. You can find the latest updates about upcoming groups at the link below or on my instagram @divergentpdx.
One group is called “Autistic Joy.” This group is 8 weeks long and lasts an hour and a half. I structure the group quite a bit for the folx who need it with a schedule, a list of discussion questions, and activities to do to support any planning you would like to do for group. I also stress that everything except showing up is optional in this group. You being there as your autistic self is enough. Click below for more details!
Individual Therapy
Individual therapy with me usually lasts 50-55 minutes, and can be done online from the comfort of your home (or wherever else you are in Oregon:). I start by chatting a little bit, and then typically will ask directly “What should we get into today?” I do this because you are in the driver’s seat of your own therapy. I will definitely help if the answer is “I have no f-ing idea!” but I believe deep in my soul that you are the expert on your own life, experience, and healing. I’m here to bring my therapeutic skills, understanding, and our relationship to the room to guide you through that process.

Transgender Advocacy
As a therapist, I provide trans-affirming care every day in my therapeutic work. I provide gender-affirming surgery letters to my clients for free. I care deeply about my community as a trans-masc/nonbinary person, and I spread that care out by advocating for my clients and other community members. If you are a member of the trans community and would like support with advocating for trans-affirming care, please reach out at the link below!
