Clients come to me with a variety of concerns: sexual desire, identity questions, sexual shame, body image concerns, religious deconstruction, navigating new types of relationships like queer, kinky, or non-monogamous ones, or they simply want a space to explore themselves in a way they never have before. None of us gets to adulthood without some struggle with sexuality and identity, and by seeking support we can start breaking down stigma and shame. Our relationship to pleasure is often at the root of our struggles, and it is my mission to increase collective access to pleasure in all areas of our lives.
I root my practice in anti-oppressive frameworks, moving towards liberation for all genders, races, body types, abilities, nationalities, religious beliefs, sexual orientations, and family structures. My work is holistic and systemic, which means that we tend to all the parts of you and how they affect one another, plus the systems you're part of.
We’re taught that sex should be easy. The truth is that sexuality is complex, particularly with so many mixed messages and expectations. We could all use a little help. If you're struggling with an aspect of your sexuality, I can help you identify the important questions and guide you in your journey to find the answers. Less shame, more pleasure!

While I am not in-network with insurance companies, I can provide a superbill for you to file with your insurance company for potential reimbursement. I also have a limited number of sliding scale spots, and occasionally offer group therapy as a more affordable (and often more effective) option.
