I am a client centered cognitive therapist. My approach is to accept you where you are without judgement. I am interactive and offer insights and opinions when appropriate.

I believe our world view and life experience is built in the framwork our belief systems. Real change occurs at this level.

My perspective on gender identity is we all have it and only I can determine what that identity looks like an means to me. I offer you that same privlege... to determine your own identity! We know who we are but many times we get messages from family, peer, society that who we are is not acceptable. Not honoring our spirit has a way of erroding our hearts to being constantly guarded and hidden for fear of people discovering our truth. I have worked with people in transition since 1997 and know the journey is unique to everyone. There is no "one way" to do this. I am here to help you determine how to create a life for yourself you can love and appreciate. 

I am continuely amazed with this new generation of parents that are willing to understand their gender varient children. I am thrilled our local transchildren have resources and support with the Genices Program at Children's Medical. Due to the Texas government's attack on transgender kids access to healthcare we have lost this valuable resource. Education about gender identity has grown and successful anti trans-legislation has pushed the mythology assigned to tran-speople by cis-people. In Texas they are determined to deny trans identities. I am hopeful with this generation will define for themselves their gender expression, identity, and expectation and take over public policy that denies their existance. In the face of everything that is happening in our world I believe we can find peace, love, and joy. I will remain a safe place that allows all gender varient people to become their best self.
