My goal is to help clients learn to heal past wounds and create healthier, more satisfying relationships with themselves and others. I specialize in assisting adults in navigating to new, more empowered/grounded identities after trauma and improving sexual health/satisfaction. We will work together toward helping you connect with who you always were and meant to be. You do not need to know how that could be possible, I will hold that intention for you while we discover your truth. My primary modalities are

In addition to eating disorders and attachment-focused work, I’m also passionate about working with families, queer/trans folks, ethically non-monogamous folks, and
sex
workers.
My clinical interests include psychodynamic and attachment theory, somatic based trauma therapy, and anti-carceral eating disorder therapy. I hold a graduate degree in Clinical Social Work Practice from Columbia University, and a Graduate Certificate in Gender & Women’s Studies from the University of Arizona. I identify as a queer feminist, and my hope is to work within an anti-oppressive psychotherapy framework. For me, this means I aim to hold in mind the dynamics of power, race, oppression, and privilege in the therapy room, in communities, and in larger sociocultural and political systems.

Sex Therapy
Who is sex therapy for?
Sex problems are common in relationships. Many people want a better sex life and want to feel loved and desired by their partner. It is difficult for couples to resolve sexual problems on their own because people often feel ashamed to talk about their sexual desires fearing they are not normal, when in fact a very broad range of preferences and behaviors are normal. A sex therapist can help clarify this and other matters.
Why do people need sex therapy?
Many people do not know how to talk about their erotic needs or their emotional needs, both of which are addressed in sex therapy. Couples often live with sexual difficulties for years before seeking help, and in that time, partners may experience so much disappointment and alienation that they may fear their problems mean they are incompatible. Once people experience disappointment, it is difficult to find resolution without help.
What happens in sex therapy?
People have many misconceptions about what takes place in sex therapy. First, it is a form of talk therapy in which partners discuss their sexual concerns; it does not involve touching or physical exploration of any kind. Sex therapy typically helps couples get comfortable talking to each other about sex so that, in the privacy of their home life, they can openly discuss their sexual desires and make decisions about what they want to do. Couples are typically assigned activities to do at home that build intimacy skills.
What kinds of problems do sex therapists treat?
Very often, partners differ in their degree of sexual desire and struggle over how often to have sex. Or they may have fights about porn use or have difficulty connecting sexually after one partner is unfaithful. Men may have problems with premature ejaculation. Women may find themselves struggling to become aroused or to achieve an orgasm. Sometimes partners feel like they have lost the sense of attraction to their partner. These are all common issues dealt with in sex therapy.
