honey is…

My work is rooted in lived-experience, training & practice as a mental health counselor, internal family systems, somatics, and education.

I have worn a great many hats in my life. From team captain, to neurodiversity & inclusion consultant, to retail business owner, to international roller derby coach, to camp counselor, to roller skate tech… In all of these roles, understanding people and the systems that we build, sustain, and struggle with and within has been my primary interest.

I strive for an anti-oppressive, anti-carceral, experience-affirming, and holistic approach to my work.
I believe that you are the expert of your own life and your own change and acceptance work. And that my work lies in supporting you in that process by offering observations, questions, frameworks, and practical & emotional support.

I studied mental health counseling at NYU and held a practicum and internship at Gay Men’s Health Crisis (GMHC). I began my post-grad work as a program specialist and clinician at KIP therapy for a year, and then finished my pre-licensure hours at FreshPathNY.

Since then I have spent time working with a small case load of peer coaching clients and have been engaged with independent facilitation, consulting, and education work. I also work as an artist, doing costuming and performance work.

I enjoy painting with water colors, making objects out of repurposed and unconventional materials, building and repairing roller skates, rhythm skating, riding my bike, playing piano, and getting slushies with my pals.
