You are not the problem, the problem is the problem

You alone can do it but you don't have to do it alone

I will see you

Have you experienced oppression and discrimination by individuals or systems that have rigid rules around identity? Do  want a safe space to explore and empower your authentic self?   AND/OR  Do you want to be able to trust that your identity and culture will be respected no matter what your presenting problems are?

 

 

I will believe you

Have you experienced discrimination or a lack of understanding of your body in the medical system? This may include surgical, mental health,  gender affirming care, chronic conditions, diagnoses and other elements. Have you felt or been: fearful, dismissed, disbelieved, refused care or treatment, lacked appropriate pain management, infantilised, patronised or had your identity or culture questioned or delegitimised?  I know that what doctors think they know about your body is often not what you know.

I will hear you

Do you feel like you don't have a voice or that when you try to speak you are shutdown. Have you been victim blamed, gaslight, bullied and/or coerced?                                                                     

Do you simply want to talk to someone about difficult experiences and emotions and know they will not impose their beliefs or values on your situation?

You are here. If this is as far as you get, thank you for getting this far.

If you choose to meet with me, thank you, that takes courage and trust, something you might feel is hard for you right now.

When we talk, you may feel intense emotions and discover things you didn't know were deeply affecting you. 

It is my ethical duty and personal philosophy that your safety and autonomy is paramount and that you are empowered in our relationship.
