Introduction

My mission has been "to provide services that I could not even find myself" for a long time and I knew that was setting the bar high. I want to be able to make counseling more accessible and efficient for my clients compared to what the 'traditional' experience typically entails. The website domain I chose "they counsel them" recognizes the transgender community and is also inclusive of those who are not members of the LGBTQIA+ community. This practice was created with the intention of promoting basic human rights and inclusion of people within the LGBTQIA+ community, allies of the community, and those trying to learn. I respect everyone's right to healthcare and will not turn anyone away who is respectful and open to growth. I actively sponsor members of the BIPOC community and am inclusive of all denominations of religion and spirituality. I have been previously military affiliated and appreciate all of the people who serve our country to keep us safe as well as recognize people who support peace and love. Areas of Specialty: ~ LGBTQIA+ (coming out, transitioning, gender affirming letters, & allyship) ~ ~ VAST/Autistic clients (including ADHD and cognitive diversity) ~ ~Sponsorship of BIPOC providers through referrals and humility ~ ~ Relationships (family, couples, polycules, BDSM, kink-affirming) ~ ~ Body neutrality, disordered eating, and OCD ~ ~ Federal Employees (supportive & safe documentation practices) ~ ~ Military (spouses & 'out' service members) ~ ~ Rural Communities & Gaps in Services ~
