Welcome to STARLING: Our Healing Justice Collective

As Peer Counselors, we play a crucial role in supporting our local queer community and organizing landscape, both on and off SQSH’s Helpline. In our care work, we may find ourselves facing additional challenges with compassion fatigue, burnout, and secondary trauma. We hope this site can help you in exploring diverse modes of healing, connecting with STARLING healers that best fit your needs, and engaging in ongoing support & programming by SQSH!

Breathwork, Reiki, Spiritual Guidance, Conflict Exploration

We may be a good fit if… you want to deepen your relationship with yourself, and build your capacity for presence. You're a deep feeling human who longs to break free from the automations of everyday life, and return back to the ritual of your Being; you long to return back to the real. I help people get present, embody curious postures, tenderly hold and honor inner and outer conflicts, and become more integrated and enlivened in themselves.

Skills for Change Coaching

We may be a good fit if… you want to stop losing time and energy to relationship friction and doubting yourself. Do you want your internal and external support systems to deeply meet you? I help you change so that your people change with you. My clients reclaim their radical life vision, recognize and stop shame, release muscle tension, move with ease, and be at home within rupture and repair.
