Sexual identity formation has become complicated by cultural messages that may not align with a person’s core values. It’s important to explore the influences to sexual identity with patience and respect to what’s most salient to the one navigating this journey. I work with both individuals and families dealing with questions around sexual identity. My other areas of practice include grief, trauma (EMDR) and young adult transitions. I serve the north Orange County area of Brea and surrounding cities.
