Our lives can sometimes be filled with pleasure and wonder, but they can also be filled with turmoil and pain. Problems can arise that lead to anxiety, depression, or other symptoms that affect daily living. My desire is to not only help you live, but to thrive. If your experiences with friends, relationships, and intimacy have made life challenging, be comforted that there is hope. We’ll work together toward a path of healing that is creative, unique, and right for you. I do not subscribe to pathologizing a person’s experiences; my passion lies with helping others safely and curiously navigate what is happening in their lives.
I’ve been in the sexuality space for over 15 years, and am also happy to work with those looking for ways to address broader issues. I’ve got experience in Film & TV and can help industry members with the stress of such intense work. I'm sexwork-, kink-, & Poly/NM-informed. For in-person sessions, I offer Walk & Talk therapy, taking therapy out into nature.
I enjoy engaging with a variety of clients and learning about experiences, cultures, & identities different to mine. Taking the journey toward change is something we can do together. As a member of the queer community, I aim to provide safer spaces for people to explore themselves and their needs when it can be difficult to find that space elsewhere.
