Inez Parra (she/they)

I have extensive training on healthy relationships, boundary setting and intimate partner violence. Whether you are casually dating and trying to get a better sense of how to connect to others, bumping heads with family members or struggling to leave a relationship that is no longer meeting your needs, I'm happy to explore action steps that will aide you in feeling more confident in your skin.

As a queer person and accomplice to my trans loved ones, my passion for working with LGBTQ folks is informed by lived experience as well as years of advocacy, activism and professional experience. I'm also very honored to serve loved ones and chosen family of queer and gender expansive people.

Grief and loss are intense and lasting, yet expansive and ever-evolving. I consider it a privilege to hold space for individuals in the throes of grief. This may mean you're mourning the death of a loved one, but it may also be related to navigating illness, the loss of a job or relationship or much more. You deserve to have someone bear witness to your feelings. I've worked with many individuals as they've processed losses, and I've also facilitated memorials and death debriefings for groups.

I'm a firm believer in being intentional about our relationship to the world around us. As we continue to develop our self-awareness and confidence, we are more able to interrupt harmful patterns of behavior and narratives that prevent connection and fulfillment. The humanistic therapeutic relationship promotes trust and safety while avoiding judgement and pathologizing.
