ABOUT ME
I am cisgender, was born in Houston and raised in San Marcos, TX. I come from a Southern, poor and working class family of Ashkenazi Jews. My privileged education, training and experience give me the "know-how" in creating a dialogue of possibilities. However, you are the expert on you and your life. I welcome all people and worldviews to stigma-free counseling-LGBTQIA+, immigrants, quien habla español, neurodivegent; all faiths, nationalities, cultures and bodies. I am part of an international community of activists, mental health professionals, educators, dialogue practitioners and scholars who inform and influence my work. I stay in practice with people and the world around me.
Influencing paradigms: Depth Psychology, Post-Humanism, Liberation & Decolonizing Psychologies, Prison Abolition, Radical Feminisms, Social Psychoanalysis and Latin American-Indigenous Ontologies.
