Are you part of the LGBTQIA+/kink/BDSM/ENM communities or seeking to explore this part of your identity? Have you ever felt judgment upon bringing this up? Have you ever just not felt comfortable bringing this up? Well, as a queer kink-identified therapist I understand that this is part of your identity and not a pathology. Does this mean I am going to try to move you towards ethical non monogamy or kink/BDSM? Nope! It means that this is a safe space to be you or explore those ideas. And if that’s not you? I welcome you as well.
As a licensed clinician, with years of therapy experience, I approach this work with a strong passion and an individualized approach for each client that comes through my door. I am deeply honored to be allowed inside your world. I’m a queer, ADHD/autistic, kinky person who has had my own share of trauma and obstacles to overcome.
I believe that relatability and the human experience are important factors in our work together. The theories that I ground to, I deeply believe in. I also incorporate geek therapy, tying together your favorite books, movies, anime, games into our therapy. If anything here resonated with you, I encourage you to make the call to schedule an appointment.

I work with clients who may be struggling with identity, relationship issues, or just simply existing as a marginalized person in the world that we live in. I think it's valuable to explore your way of viewing the world, understanding where that view came from whether it be from childhood, past experiences, or your own existence as a queer/kinky/neurodivergent person. We then find strategies.
