I am a sex positive therapist, LCSW and MBT supervisor. My career started in 2006 and have owned my private practice since 2021. I am down to earth even with extensive experience and training. My style is validating and to challenge my clients in order to move towards emotional/behavioral change while working on core attachment issues. My areas of speciality are: BPD/NPD/PDNOS, Trauma/PTSD/CPTSD, Abuse/DV, Gender/sexuality, ENM/Poly, Kink/BDSM, and LGBTQIA+ folx. My approach is client focused and collaborative as I approach my work with clients as a journey we take together.
I have been trained in several Evidence-Based therapeutic modalities including: Psychodynamic, CPTSD, ACT, and MBT (Mentalization Based Treatment), which all inform the way in which I approach treatment with clients. My style is unique and at times I will recommend unconventional techniques or skills completely tailored to my clients.
I utilizes a variety of skills when working with clients to address the many issues people face. My approach is holistic which includes a wide variety of therapeutic approaches, along with recommendations to help enhance the therapy work. I work with clients in a person centered way to help them recognize patterns of thoughts & behaviors.

In my practice I tend to work with people who have expericed trauma, PTSD, CPTSD, a range of personality disorder (most commonly BPD) and frame my work through the framework of sex positivity. That's a nice way of saying that I do not engage in body shamming and am inclusive of many different types of people. Clients start to see improvement in 4-6 weeks with significant improvement 6-12 months.

I use Mentalization Based Treatment (MBT) as the framework for my practice. This is relatively new (2017) and is backed by research and empirical data. MBT focuses on attachment based issues with ourselves and others while helping us better understand the world around us. I am happy to go into more detail during our free phone consultation. I look forward to hearing from you.
