I welcome families of all kinds in my practice, and I am an advocate for those marginalized because of sexual orientation or gender variation. I have done additional training in the care of gay, lesbian, gender expansive, and other sexual minority children and adolescents.
As a member of the Central Oregon Transgender Healthcare Coalition, I am working to improve access to care for transgender and gender expansive kids and teens throughout Central Oregon. I have completed training on transgender healthcare through OHSU and the World Professional Alliance for Transgender Healthcare (WPATH). I am happy to work in consultation with your endocrinologist. You can receive your all of your care with me, or we can do a combination of the two. Medical transitioning services I can provide include puberty blockers, hormone therapy, menstrual cessation therapy, as well as counseling and advice on social transitioning, working with schools and families, accessing mental health services, etc.
For LGBTQ parents, I am a lactation consultant and am experienced in the Newman-Goldfarb Induced Lactation Protocol for inducing lactation in a non-birth parent.
