As a queer therapist, I embrace lifelong learning and love sharing tidbits of insights every now and then

I’m also fairly active on social media, especially Instagram. As a queer therapist, I use my Instagram and blogs to share thoughts and insights surrounding my practise. Sometimes I also shared behind-the-scenes activities and take inspiration from my personal and professional life, anything and everything under the sun. My goal is to share, educate, and connect with the public. If you have any topics in mind that you thought would be interesting to discuss, I welcome you to reach out.
