I offer talk therapy for people at any stage of their gender-affirming surgery journey, with a special focus on supporting those pursuing or recovering from phalloplasty. Whether you’re in the research phase, navigating consultations and waitlists, preparing for surgery, in recovery, or adjusting to your post-op body, it’s not too early or too late to get support.

Common themes I support clients with:

• Decision-making and preparation around surgery and readiness

• Medical trauma and navigating dysregulating healthcare systems

• Body image, identity integration, and embodiment after surgery

• Relationships, intimacy, and erotic recovery

• Grief, joy, ambivalence, and everything in between

• Post-op emotional processing (especially in later stages, after the logistics fade but the feelings persist)

• Navigating complications, revisions, or unexpected emotions

• Processing others’ reactions or lack of understanding

What our work might look like:

Sessions are guided by your needs and what’s coming up — physically, emotionally, spiritually, relationally, etc. We might slow down and tend to anxiety or grief. We might celebrate moments of joy, integrate stories of change, or gently explore discomfort. We might talk logistics, letters of support, transition timelines, sensation, sex, scars, etc. We’ll shape the experience together.
