Hi, I'm Niki! My pronouns are she/her/hers or they/them/theirs. If you find yourself struggling with patterns of people-pleasing, not feeling satisfied with life, difficulty in relationships, or never feeling good enough, I'm here to help!
What can clients expect to take away from sessions with you?
In our first session together, we'll start with introductions and discuss some important things like informed consent and what brought you to therapy. First sessions are also a good opportunity for us to start getting to know each other and see if we would be a good fit to work together moving forward!
Explain to clients what areas you feel are your biggest strengths.
I specialize in helping people heal from interpersonal/relational trauma. I also have in-depth knowledge of LGBTQIA+ issues.
Describe the client(s) you are best positioned to serve.
I am LGBTQIA+ affirming, HAES/fat liberationist, poly-friendly, sex positive, and kink-aware. I am committed to social justice-oriented, intersectional, and anti-racist perspectives.

Schema Therapy
Schema therapy is an integrative psychotherapy combining theory and techniques from cognitive behavioral therapy, object relations theory, attachment theory, and Gestalt therapy. By understanding unmet needs from childhood and adolescence, we can better understand what schemas and core beliefs we've developed (like abandonment, defectiveness, social isolation, failure, etc.) and start working together to heal them.
Daialectical Behavior (DBT)
DBT is largely about building skill to help with things like emotional regulation, distress tolerance, and interpersonal effectiveness.
