Work HistoryI worked in child welfare in the UK (similar to CPS work) for 11 years before returning to the US and working as a bilingual therapist. I work with adults from diverse backgrounds - including those healing from toxic relationships, individuals navigating the effects of childhood trauma/C-PTSD, and fellow neurodiverse folks. I am LGBTQ+, poly/ENM, and kink-friendly.
