Are you carrying questions about your relationships, intimacy, or sexuality that feel hard to name? Are shame, past experiences, trauma, or conflicting messages about what relationships or sex are "supposed" to look like getting in the way of feeling connected, confident, or fulfilled? Are you finding yourself stuck between what you want and what feels possible? This is where I can help. Together, we'll focus on restoring safety and trust, healing how past experiences impact your body and relationships, and creating more intentional, satisfying emotional and sexual connections that align with your values, boundaries and needs.
I work with individuals and couples in both traditional and non-traditional relationships including monogamy, polyamory, and kink/BDSM. My eclectic, strengths-based approach is sex-positive, trauma-informed, and grounded in realism. I offer individual and couple therapy, as well as individual and couple ketamine-assisted psychotherapy (KAP).
You don't have to have everything figured out to begin. If you're feeling stuck, curious, overwhelmed, or ready for something to change, you're not alone. Reaching out can feel vulnerable, and it's ok to take your time. I invite you to connect and see if working together feels like a supportive next step.
