I specialize in helping people change behaviors that are harming their relationships and keeping them from living to their fullest potential. Together, we find what is causing anxiety, depression, irritability, or "the blahs." Many people have patterns in their behaviors or relationships that are stuck repeating and don't know why. Using evidence-based practices to inform our work, we can uncover what's underneath these symptoms to get you lasting relief. I also specialize in working with folks in the queer community, poly and open relationship issues.

You may be educated, even outwardly successful, but struggle to feel good about yourself, have difficulties with close relationships or just want more out of life. I believe it's human to struggle and that we all can benefit from self exploration.

My style is active and I bring humor and compassion to help you develop solutions as well as grow from your struggles. A seasoned therapist, my approach is flexible and practical, tailored to meet your needs. I'm LGBTQIA sensitive and welcoming.

I am passionate about helping you explore what’s getting in the way of being your full self and having the connections you want. I provide psychotherapy to adult individuals, couples, and more than couples from a place of open-mindedness, curiosity, and sex-positivity, and an awareness that our lives don’t always unfold as expected. People who work well with me include those with liminal identities that may not fit neatly into boxes and who may feel like outsiders in some spaces.

Seeking Feminist, body-neutral, LGBTQIA+ celebrating depth therapy? Culture, race, ethnicity, gender, sex, sexuality impact the stories we are told about who we are, can be & should be.

You’ve come to a point where you know old narratives aren’t serving you, they're playing out in your relationships, career, family, internal narrative & you want to create more joy, freedom & ease in your day to day. The feminist LGBTQIA+ affirming & celebrating lens can be healing, empowering, & liberating one for all identities!

Do you miss your partner and the relationship that you used to have? Do you wish that you could feel more sexually connected? It might feel like, over the years, you have lost your passion and that intimate, sensual spark that first brought you together. The loss of connection may have stemmed from past breakdowns in communication, painful experiences such as infertility, addictions, or grief, or struggles with body image or shame around sexuality. When you try to talk about sex or your relationship, it may feel like you are just going around in circles and you don’t know how to get back to that closeness that you used to share.
