I know that reaching out for therapy can be so intimidating, particularly with issues related to sexuality. You may be looking to step into a more authentic version of yourself or you may be dealing with relationship struggles. You may have felt stuck for some time or are just beginning to question what doesn't feel right. Together, we can embrace the challenges of life's struggles and work to find you more ease. I am an identity affirming therapist who especially loves working with people who are queer, BIPOC, neurodivergent, disabled, or somehow "othered" by society.
I use approaches that help you connect more deeply with your body. Those include EMDR, polyvagal, and IFS. I also use attachment theory to help you understand how your past impacts the present and work towards being your own sense of security. With couples, I work to see how your stories intersect and build something that lets everyone exist more fully.
I value your effort in searching for a therapist! It is already so vulnerable to have made it this far. I look forward to speaking with you to see if we are a good fit for one another! I currently live in Oregon but I do travel to Seattle frequently and offer in person session.

If you are seeing me for sex therapy, I follow a minimally invasive model where we only dive into deeper therapy work if other solutions don't provide movement for you. You decide how much you want to share and when you want to share it. I also use models that bring forward bodily awareness so you can learn how to better tap into your innate wisdom.

I like to help clients slow down and listen to their nervous system so they can decipher the messages they already receive from it all day long! We'll talk about coping skills, grounding techniques, and intentionally completing the stress response cycle which can be a source of growing anxiety when left unattended to.
