Sara Knight, HBSW, RSW, (she/her)
I’m a queer, lesbian, fat-femme, who knows what it’s like to need someone in your corner while you navigate the destruction and creation that can come with healing. Sex, sexuality and gender, desire, trauma, grief, and the ongoing impacts of sexual violence are at the heart of my work.
Holly Naraine, RP (Qualifying) (she/her)
Being a Black-Biracial queer femme, I recognize the sense of comfort and safety that is experienced when you see and hear familiarity within mental health practitioners. I particularly enjoy working with individuals seeking to explore their relationships to sex and intimacy.
