Do you want to feel empowered and connected, having more joy and pleasure in your life, after a challenging life experience? Are finding yourself or your relationship unable to break challenging patterns? Are you struggling with how to reconnect sexually and regain the intimacy you once shared? Working from a strengths based & holistic perspective, I am skilled at creating a warm, open space to help individuals and couples increase intimacy, enhance understanding, navigate changing roles, set boundaries, resolve conflicts, heal trauma, and create satisfying relationships.
Now offering clinical supervision for LGPCs in Maryland!
Using my expertise in trauma, sensorimotor, somatic, cognitive and narrative therapy, I will help you understand how the stories of your life have shaped your experience and worldview of your role in relationships. I will also help you process thoughts and behaviors about intimacy and relationships that are getting in the way of your access to pleasure.
I am an immigrant, LGBTQIA+ ally, trauma-informed, and anti-racist. My practiceis culturally responsive, meaning that I center unique identity, systems, cultural beliefs and strengths. I am supportive of all queer identities, and relationship structures, and am kink affirming. Sessions are available in English, French, and Hebrew, for folks in MD, VA, and WV
