I am a genderfluid, Buddhist therapist and computer programmer.

A sensitive soul, a quiet lover, a patient listener, a courageous fire pixie 💖🌷💥

I love connecting with others and embracing the emotional, embodied quality of being human. I am passionate about group therapy and am currently pursuing an M.A. in Contemplative Psychotherapy at Naropa University. I code and teach programming in my free time.
