I’m going to meet you right as you are, right now. I work with over-thinkers, creatives, people who question themselves (and me, and everything). I work with men, women, and non-binary folx who are navigating big life transitions (maybe you’re going back to school, beginning or ending a partnership, or becoming a parent). I also work with those hoping to explore and understand their relationships with sex and sexuality. In addition, I work with people and couples (non-monogamous welcome) looking to deepen their connections, embark on a partnership mindfully, or end their partnership collaboratively.
I hold a space that feels warm and loving, but informal. While I make sure I hold safe boundaries for my clients, I believe in the power of transparency and being my genuine self in my work with people. This is the place to be honest, vulnerable, and messy. No one has their sh*t together in every category of their lives, all the time.
You might be feeling emotionally fatigued or overwhelmed. You may struggle to give yourself permission to make space FOR YOU. You might be wondering if your relationship is right for you. You may be a perfectionist, a procrastinator, a people pleaser. You might just be into the idea of therapy, but don't know where to start. So let's start.
