Having personally journeyed through health issues and experiences related to LGBTQ+ identity, sex positivity (including polyamory), religious trauma, neurodivergence (AuDHD), and multicultural backgrounds, Taunya understands the importance of meeting people where they are with empathy and respect. This lived perspective allows them to connect deeply with clients across diverse identities and life stories.
