They also enjoy working with underrepresented genders, sexualities, and relationship orientations including kink/BDSM and polyamory/non-monogamy. Cavanaugh’s professional interests include deconstructing social narratives and the integration of community and individual wellness.

Approach to Therapy

Cavanaugh is an integrative practitioner who draws heavy influence from psychodynamic, feminist, queer, and systems theories. They believe in co-creation and a client-centered collaborative approach, and utilize several therapeutic styles to care for students. Cavanaugh is a pleasure-wellness practitioner, aiming for active joy-seeking instead of simply elimination of negative experience.

Approach to Wellness

Cavanaugh loves to cook and bake and takes deep joy in nourishing their family and community with food. They love RPGs, video and board games, and crime procedural TV shows and spend a lot of time in nature with their children, partners, dogs, and bunny. Cavanaugh takes great pleasure in being the mom friend, going to the movies, and laughing as often as possible.
