Affirmed Emotions Therapy exists to help you get free — free from shame, free from old survival stories, & free from the systems that taught you to shrink. Liberation isn’t the bonus here; it’s the whole damn point.
I show up as my full, queer, human self so you can show up as yours. Therapy with me is radically authentic, collaborative, & grounded in brave connection — the kind where honesty is welcomed, intensity is normal, & your identity is never the problem.
My mission is to hold space with dignity & a little chaos magic: softness when you need comfort, clarity when you need direction, & zero judgment when life turns into a whole-ass plot twist. You get room to explore, question, unlearn, heal, & rebuild — all while being held with compassion & respect.
I’m proudly LGBTQIA+ affirming, sex-work positive, kink-aware, anti-racist, neurospicy-friendly, & absolutely unfazed by your depth.
My goal is simple: help you reclaim your story, reconnect with your worth, & build a life that actually feels like yours again.
✨ Healing with liberation. Honesty. Human connection. And yes…a little glitter & rage.


“I want to wear his initial on a chain ’round my neck…not because he owns me.”
I’m here to help you get free — free from the noise, the expectations, the boxes, the “be smaller” bullshit. Your identity isn’t a problem to solve; it’s a story to reclaim. Therapy with me is liberation with sparkles. 💖

“You know I’m not a bad girl, but I do bad things with you.”
I don’t do therapy in a monotone whisper behind a clipboard. You get the full me — queer, caffeinated, cuss-word-friendly, emotionally attuned, & straight-up allergic to performative professionalism. Real recognizes real, & healing has to start there.

“You wouldn’t be the first renegade to need somebody.”
Therapy with me is a collaboration, not a lecture. We build safety together, we hold the hard shit together, & we stir the pot when it needs stirring — you guessed it, together. I’m not above you or “neutral” — I’m in it with you, walking with you, side-by-side, honest & human.

“It’s like snow on the beach, weird but fucking beautiful.”
I hold space like a soft landing and a spark — because you deserve both. Your humanity gets honored here, your mess gets welcomed, & your growth gets room to breathe. I’ll bring the compassion & the clarity…& often the loving chaos.
🎥 ONE OF MY FAVORITE FUCKING SHORT VIDS.
If you’ve ever been on the receiving end of a “well, at least…blah, blah blah” & wanted to scream into the void — you need this. Brené Brown breaks down the difference between empathy & sympathy in a way that just clicks. It’s funny, real, & one of the best damn explanations of why I don’t do pity. I do presence.
Watch this, then you’ll get exactly what I mean when I say I’ll sit in the shit with you instead of trying to paint it pretty. 💁🏼♀️
