A well-known psychologist, Carl Jung, wrote, "We all walk around in shoes far too small for us." I see therapy as a space where we can expand beyond what limits us. Whether we are dealing with past trauma or current hardships, the possibility of healing is always there for us. I specialize in working with adults who are struggling with anxiety, depression, childhood trauma, or are navigating challenging life transitions and tumultuous relationships.

You have made the brave decision to show up for therapy, to show up for YOU. I attempt to understand the world from the client's view; to give the most valuable healing gift: being heard. Together, we determine what is missing & what is important (the Why: purpose), how the client wants to find fulfillment (the What: set goals). We determine How we will know they are successful and can continue on their own (measures for termination). I've been a Chaplain. I counseled people living with schizophrenia, bi-polar, or addictions, and prisoners - exhibiting anxiety, depression, grief, identity disorders, impulsivity & trauma response.

There are times in our lives that range from feeling impossible and never ending to not bad but not "right". Therapy can help you figure out the what, why, and how. What's exactly "wrong", why am I feeling that way and how do I move forward. This is even left up to you on what we work on and how far we dive into anything. I believe in creating a collaborative and nonjudgmental environment. I come from a non-traditional background which allows me to approach the therapeutic process in a holistic and eclectic way of meeting your starting point. I believe if we learn to be compassionate to ourselves, we are more open to healing change

Struggling with a compulsive, values-incongruent behavior? You can find freedom, intimacy, and healthy sexuality- (which can include kinky fun) through hard work. Based on current data, research shows that 10.3% of men and 7% of women experience distress from uncontrolled sexual urges. Typically, many begin experiencing issues in adolescence but do not seek help until their mid-30s. My clients are likely to have faced significant consequences in relationships, career, and health, often feeling shame or guilt.

Why might an individual want to see a sex-positive, kink-allied therapist?
A sex-positive or kinky individual may want to see a sex-positive, kink-allied therapist because the client may feel safer and more supported discussing their experiences and challenges. A therapist who identifies as kink-friendly will have experience with clients having diverse sexual preferences and will likely be nonjudgmental and supportive about issues brought to the table. It is important to note that sex-positive, kink-allied individuals may find equal success with therapists who do not have such specialized knowledge and background. The most important factor in the success of therapy is for the client and practitioner to form a strong, trusting bond.
Do therapists have special training to gain expertise in sex-positive, kink-allied treatment?
Generally, no. There are limited training programs and unofficial accreditations that therapists can pursue, but a therapist’s expertise will ultimately come from their previous experience with similar clients, their engagement with organizations that promote sex positivity or kink-allied lifestyles, and the importance they place on safety and cultural sensitivity.
How can individuals recognize a good sex-positive, kink-allied therapist?
An experienced therapist is able to help clients explore their sexual identity and expression and relieve any discomfort or stigma attached to discussing such matters and the client’s overall challenges. A therapist who is sex-positive and kink-allied is able to create an environment that honors a client’s experience and sexual preferences. To recognize a good therapist, clients can simply ask directly about topics and issues important to them and gauge their comfort level and connection with a clinician based on the responses.
Can clients benefit from having a therapist with a focus on sex positivity and alternative sexual lifestyles?
Some individuals may feel most comfortable knowing that the clinician they’re working with has a commitment to creating an atmosphere of sex positivity and has experience with relationship diversity and alternative relationship structures. Working with a sex-positive, kink-allied therapist may help clients respect their own challenges and improve identity-affirming treatment.
