Hi, I'm Elaine!

I am a neurodiverse- and queer-affirming therapist that specializes in engaging where these things intersect (and where they don't). In a previous life, I earned a PhD in philosophy, specializing in queer and trans theory. I pivoted to focus this knowledge towards more directly supporting LGBTQIA2S+ communities through mental health support.
