Gender-Affirming Pelvic Floor Therapy in Portland

Inclusive, Trauma-Informed Care for Trans and Gender Non-Conforming Patients

You are deeply welcome here.

I provide knowledgeable, respectful, trauma-informed pelvic floor therapy that honors your full humanity. Whether you're pre-transition, post-transition, or anywhere on your journey.

As a grateful mom to a beautiful queer human, I understand that too often, being born in a world that tries to force people into binaries leaves deep trauma—trauma that lives in the body, the nervous system, the pelvis.

I would be honored to help you recover all the beautiful parts of your soul and release any somatically held shame, trauma, or pain.


  • Gender-affirming pelvic care addresses pelvic floor dysfunction, pain, and surgical recovery for trans and gender non-conforming individuals. This might include:

    • Pelvic pain or dysfunction unrelated to transition

    • Sexual health and pleasure reclamation

    • Bowel or bladder dysfunction

    • Trauma release work

    • Reconnecting with your body after years of dysphoria

    • Post-surgical pelvic floor rehabilitation (after top or bottom surgery)

    • Post-surgical pain or dysfunction (phalloplasty, vaginoplasty, metoidioplasty, hysterectomy)

    • Pelvic floor muscle dysfunction (too tight, too weak, uncoordinated)

    • Painful sex or sexual dysfunction

    • Loss of sensation or nerve pain post-surgery

    • Bowel or bladder issues

    • Scar tissue restrictions

    • Chronic pelvic pain

    • Somatic trauma held in the pelvis

  • Consent-Based Practice: Every touch is explained and consented to. You are always in control of your treatment.

    No Assumptions: I won't assume anything about your body, your pronouns, your experience. You tell me what you need.

    Trauma-Informed: I understand that medical trauma, gender dysphoria, and societal violence against trans bodies create layers of held trauma. We move at your pace.

    Holistic: This isn't just about pelvic floor muscles. It's about reclaiming your body as your sacred home.

  • Initial evaluation (90 minutes): We'll talk about your goals, your history, what brought you in. Physical assessment only happens with your full consent and comfort.

    Follow-up sessions (75 minutes): Hands-on manual therapy, education, exercises tailored to your needs and goals.

  • This is a female-centric practice (there are goddesses on the walls). If you would feel more comfortable in a practice that specifically centers queer and trans experience, I'm happy to refer you to other excellent providers in Portland.

    But if you're comfortable here and seeking the specific expertise I offer—visceral manipulation, neural decompression, deep trauma work—you're welcome.
