Bio
   Howdy, I’m Nat! My pronouns are they/them. I am a queer and neurodivergent therapist. I specialize in working with queer and trans folks, autistic people, and individuals living with anxiety and obsessive-compulsive disorder. I’m passionate about working collaboratively with folks to increase self-awareness, interrupt unhelpful patterns, face fears, and explore sources of meaning and pleasure in their lives.Â
   My values as a therapist include autonomy, solidarity, curiosity, humility, and humor. If you use drugs or are in recovery, know that my approach is rooted in the principles of harm reduction. I am also sex-positive and kink-aware. When I’m not working I enjoy reading (mostly fantasy and poetry), going on walks in the woods, and learning new things.Â
