I work with people from all walks of life. My major focus in work relates to sex and sexuality. I also work with masculinity concerns, transition support, gender exploration, and general mental health concerns (anxiety, depression, PTSD, etc). I work with many kinky, and non-monogamous folks. I love working with individuals and relational work (couples, thruples, polycules, and sometimes families). Need help opening up? I work with that. Want support in exploring kink? I work with that. Want to unlearn sexual shame? I work with that. My approach is person centered and focused on you and your strength.
I have worked with in sex education and sexuality for the past 15 years. My specialty is with small community concerns regarding sexuality as well as identity development with clients regarding sexuality. You don't need to educate me on the legitimacy of your sexuality, relationship, and/or relationship with kink.
I've been working with this focus for my entire adult life. I want to support you as you work to embrace your authentic self. Let's unlearn sexual shame. Let's embrace pleasure. Let's work to be human. I'll celebrate you through your journey. It's my goal to be part of a larger support system in your journey. You set the goals and we'll go where you need.

I work with all the ways sex and sexuality interacts with your life. Sometimes that means we are actively working on sexual concerns. Sometimes that might mean we are working on something else but I won't pathologize your sexuality as the cause of other concerns.
