You're sure the average therapist can't handle or accept you, because that's what you get everywhere else you go. School, work, almost everywhere, it's been an uphill struggle to fit in and feel understood -- IF you even bother anymore. If you DO find YOUR people, YOUR tribe, you spend the whole time secretly terrified they'll figure out you're not good enough and kick you out. You've been burned a few too many times, which just reinforces your belief that you'll never belong. All that rejection and pain sits in your body and spirit, grinding you down every day. But there's still part of you that believes you can find your place. My passion is for clients I love to call Misfits and Sensitives -- artists, geeks/nerds, kink/BDSM folk, Queer and Trans folk, ethical nonmonogamists including polyamorists, Pagans and other religious minorities, witches, punks, activists, healthcare providers, folks with chronic illness/physical disability. I give you a chance to process, then I offer some tools and ideas. I offer an open mind and a safe space to talk. Please book a free 20-minute consultation, in which we can get to know each other and see if we're a good fit. I'd love to hear about what's going on for you. I am currently booking new clients ages 15 and older; daytime hours only. I am approved by the Minnesota Board of Behavioral Health and Therapy as a clinical supervisor, and I'm the President Elect and Secretary of the Minnesota Counseling Association. Are you an over-achiever, too? Let's hang.
