Embodied Change Counseling, LLC

I believe people have the power to re-author their stories. Whether the work is brief (dealing with one present problem) or longer-term (exploring life narratives or post traumatic symptoms), I hope to walk with folks towards lives that they want to live. I know the importance of feeling seen by counselors in this journey, and understand that shared identity may make new relationships feel safer; I’m a white, non-disabled cis-man living and working on unceded Wabanaki Territory - I’ve also worked extensively with women, people of color, disabled people, and trans folks, and am dedicated to anti-oppressive practice. I always welcome looking at power in the therapeutic relationship. In my experience, relationships can be both the site of the deepest harms and the most fertile soil to building safety. I've specialized in sex and sexuality therapy because I believe that, for many, sex can be an area of the most acute relationship distress AND the most impactful transformation. I work with individuals, couples, and relationship systems to talk through problems —including desire discrepancies, sexual anxiety, consensual nonmonogamy-related relational challenges, and the impacts of sexual trauma—; build somatic awareness; and analyze the impact of systems of power and oppression in folks' day to day lives. I hope the counseling room can be a space to see problems more clearly, to try on new ways of being, and to go to closely guarded places. **NOTE: My schedule is currently full, and I have closed my waitlist for the time being. I will return to update this page around the new year**
