Therapy with Staj
A sex, gender, & relationship therapist who honors your truth & empowers you towards health

“These are the questions that guide this work:
Are you treating yourself and others as sacred?
How about their treatment of you?
What does sacred treatment look like?”
― Pixie Lighthorse, Boundaries and Protection

I am a second-generation Marriage & Family Therapist, which means I have been in and around “therapy world” my whole life. Growing up hearing stories about people’s lives, their conflicts, & their healing instilled in me a deep love of the world and of humanity.
However, I didn’t know I wanted to become a therapist until the pandemic lockdown. At that time, I had to slow down enough to understand what I wanted from every day. When
I did that, it became clear that being with people in their hardships, transitions, & confusions was what made me feel most curious & alive.
I am here because of a deep, insatiable curiosity to know others, to understand what lights them up & what restores them. When people feel stuck, lost, or hurting, I am deeply interested in finding what helps alongside them.
