About

This is your journey, but not one you need go on alone.

My name is Ilana Skarling and I'm a licensed independent clinical social worker in the states of Washington, Vermont, and Minnesota, with over seven years of experiences spanning transgender care, sexual assault advocacy, community mental health, and behavioral health care. My practice is polyam-, kink-, queer-, trans-, and sex worker-friendly. I work with people struggling with addiction, grief, trauma, gender, sexuality, relationships, self-worth, and more. I do this by going beyond thoughts and words, focusing also on the body's inherent wisdom and capacity for healing. Among my many passions is teaching others to build a healthy relationship with their whole selves and their emotions. If you're interested in scheduling a consultation with me, please send me an appointment request.
