Did your guidebook to "Navigating Anxiety, Relationships, and Sex" get lost in the mail? Let's make one for you. Figuring out how to cope through anxiety or learning the unwritten rules of relationships and sex can be tiring, confusing, and sometimes just downright defeating. If you’re here because you want to get real tools to support you in working through these things, then you’re in the right place. Whether you want to discuss anxiety, trauma, painful sex, kinky sex, polyamory, or something else - this is a space where we can discuss it all - judgement free.
I am an anxiety, boundaries, and sex therapy specialist. Let's take a look at your needs, and the ways in which they are or aren't being fulfilled. Our sessions will give you knowledge, skills, and perspectives to apply in your real life. I also offer an 8-week women’s group for those experiencing emotional or physical shutdown during intimacy.
At the end of the day, none of this stuff is easy. Searching for a therapist can be overwhelming, and reaching out can feel strange. But, I got you. You got you. Let’s do this.
If you’d like to connect through a no-charge consult, I’d love to talk about how we can work together in a way that feels right for you.

When Your Body Shuts Down During Intimacy
When Your Body Shuts Down During Intimacy: Reconnecting at Your Own Pace | Starting Fall 2026. An 8-session women’s intimacy support group to help you through sexual anxiety. You wouldn’t know it, because people really don’t talk about it. But many women experience a disconnect during sexual intimacy. Sometimes it feels out of body – like the mind is leaving the scene to go elsewhere. Other times, it might feel like you’re literally counting down until the moment is over. If this sounds similar to your experience, then this group is for you.
