Many of us grew up with the idea that sex and gender identity are topics best kept quiet, creating silence and stigma around these issues. This often leaves people feeling alone or unsure of where to turn when they face challenges. That’s where sex therapy can make a difference. Imagine a space where you can openly talk about anything, including sexual health, relationships, intimacy, or gender identity, without fear of judgment. At Carolina Sexual Wellness Center, you’ll find a supportive environment designed to help you explore these important topics, gain valuable insights, and work towards a more fulfilling, connected life.

Everyone thinks you have it all together but in reality, you’re exhausted. Life is weighing you down and you desire peace & balance within but it seems unobtainable. The fear of judgment forces you to suppress your feelings. It seems like there's no one you can trust and feel vulnerable with and share your deepest thoughts and fears out loud. You manage to push through every day and find yourself feeling tired, alone, and frustrated because no one understands and shows up for you when you need it the most. It's time for a change, but figuring out where to start is a challenge for you.

People often arrive in therapy concerned there is something wrong with their thoughts and feelings. Yet, more often than not the very things about ourselves we can’t seem to understand are rooted in our most simple needs: safety, belonging, autonomy, and understanding.
In our work together, a common thread will be the process of rebuilding trust and communication with yourself - understanding the reasoning behind your thoughts and actions, and learning how to align the things you’ve learned over time with your present day values.

Many of my clients relate to the experience of feeling "othered", different or as existing outside of culturally-constructed margins. In our increasingly isolationist world, feeling different or other is becoming a common experience. While many things may remind us of our difference, or "non-normativity", in therapy I aim to collaboratively uncover and identify the worth and purpose that I believe exist in all humxn beings. I believe that all concerns, struggles, challenges, curiosities and explorations brought to therapy are related to relationships--the relationship we have with ourselves and other people. Often, clients express a need for deep connection and goals involve enhancing relationships, identifying emotions, coping more effectively with emotions, and nourishing self-worth and confidence. Research on therapeutic effectiveness has repeatedly demonstrated that therapeutic relationship is the principle determinant of positive therapeutic outcome. Thus, when I first meet clients, client-therapist relationship and chemistry is the primary emphasis and catalyst for change.

8/04/26 Accepting NEW clients! You may be carrying more than your own story. Many of my clients come to therapy feeling the weight of family expectations, cultural silence, racialized experiences, or systems that were never built with them in mind. If you’re navigating generational trauma, identity-based stress, or the emotional toll of systemic oppression, you don’t have to do it alone. My work is grounded in an intersectional lens, recognizing that our mental health is shaped by overlapping identities and social systems. I specialize in supporting individuals coping with depression, ADHD, trauma, anxiety, & relationship stressors.
