Managed by Octave. Your call or email may go to a representative.
I work with individuals and couples, including those in high-profile careers in finance, law, healthcare, and the arts. Using relationship- and sex-positive approaches informed by Barry McCarthy, The Gottmans, and Stan Tatkin, I support couples and partnerships. I specialize in alternative lifestyles, including consensual non-monogamy, BDSM, and kink, and in helping clients in psychologically abusive relationships or exploring spiritual changes. With a background in science, arts, and diverse psychological approaches, I continually enrich my practice through ongoing education.
I use a strengths-based approach, believing each person is their own best therapist. I collaborate with clients to define counseling goals and methods that work best for them. Together, we’ll build skills to navigate life with ease. By inviting the whole person—mind, body, and heart—we harness their wisdom. Reclaiming self empowers healing and growth.
I'm a therapist with Octave and Evernorth Behavioral Care Group. Octave is a mental health practice providing high-quality care covered by multiple insurances. Evernorth Behavioral Care Group is a behavioral health provider group in-network with Cigna Healthcare and Evernorth. For my availability, please reach out to Octave’s team by emailing or calling.
