I offer anti-oppressive, queer and neurodiversity-affirming clinical supervision for Registered Associates across Oregon, including Portland, Eugene, and Corvallis. I’m a Licensed Professional Counselor and CADC II, and I regularly supervise clinicians working at the intersections of mental health, substance use, identity, and systems of care. While I’m not currently accepting new clients for ongoing therapy, I do provide letters for gender-affirming care. CLINICAL SUPERVISION My approach to supervision is curious, gentle, trauma-informed, and grounded in social justice and identity-affirming care. This isn’t the kind of supervision that asks you to perform neutrality, mute your identity, or pretend the work doesn’t affect you in the name of “professionalism.” I’m interested in how the work actually lands in your body and in your life. Many people who come to me are still learning about power, social justice, and how identity shapes clinical work. Many are queer-identified, but many aren't, but have noticed gaps in their training and want to work ethically and competently with queer and/or neurodivergent clients. You don’t need to already know everything or have the “right” language here. Curiosity, openness, and a willingness to reflect are enough, that’s the point of supervision. If you’re early in your career, you may also be carrying imposter syndrome, student debt, and the unsettling realization that grad school didn’t teach you how to actually make a living. Taking insurance, getting paid sustainably, and documenting in a way that doesn’t make audits terrifying are all parts of the work that often get ignored. In supervision, we talk about those realities. APPROACH My role is to support you in building confidence, trusting your clinical intuition, and finding your own voice as a therapist. We explore how power shows up in therapy, in supervision, and across systems, and we work toward practices that are ethical, sustainable, and aligned with who you are. I have a strong background in EMDR and Internal Family Systems (IFS), and tend to work best with therapists drawn to reflective, relational, or liberatory approaches. ABOUT ME I’m a queer, white, neurodiverse, gender-expansive therapist and clinical supervisor living and working in Portland, Oregon. I’ve been in the mental health field for over a decade. Before becoming a therapist, I was a bartender—turns out both jobs involve a lot of listening, boundaries, and emotional triage. When I’m not doing this work, I’m probably hanging out with my chihuahua Buffy, riding bikes year-round, climbing rocks, or rearranging my ever-growing collection of aroids. I read a lot of sci-fi and fantasy and usually have a steady rotation of instrumental sludge and atmospheric doom metal playing in the background. (Not during supervision though. Promise.)
