Hi! And welcome. My name is Toran, and I use they/them pronouns. 

 

I offer support and services as a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist, as a Coach and Consultant to individuals and organizations, and as a Workshop Facilitator.

 

I identify as white, queer, nonbinary, and as an artist, activist, and therapist. I practice nature-based spirituality and love being in rivers and partner dancing. 

 

My community organizing and facilitation experience has been centered on racial justice, workers rights, prison abolition/prisoner solidarity, and environmental justice. As part of this work, I supported the founding and was a core member of the White Noise Collective from 2010 until its organizational sunset in early 2023. 

 

I have over 15 years of experience in the field of mental health, having served clients in a wide range of clinical settings. This includes work in residential, IOP,, and outpatient settings. I have a background in radical mental health and community mental health and have been working as a private practice therapist since 2022.

 

From 2017-2022,  I took a 5-year hiatus as a practicing therapist and worked as a union organizer in the mental healthcare field, representing therapists and advocating for change on organizational and systemic levels.
