Change is possible. With over 30 years of experience, I have successfully worked with individuals, adolescents, couples, and families to reduce anxiety, depression, and overall conflict. I have helped bring more joy into people's lives. In just 3-5 sessions, my clients often report feeling more confident, at ease, and comfortable, and experiencing greater happiness across all areas of their lives. High stress can occur during times of change: birth, separation, divorce, or the death of a loved one. I will guide you through these difficult times. Each client's therapy is personalized, collaborative, and strengths-focused.
I am a UCLA-trained, certified couples and sex therapist (AACAST) with a PhD in clinical sexology. If you are considering or involved in an open or ENM relationship, we will work together to navigate this complex territory with sensitivity, compassion, and expertise. Everyone deserves pleasure and joy. Let's find yours!
I have extensive experience working with people who practice or are interested in ENM, open relationships, polyamory, or other alternative lifestyles. I am experienced in the BDSM/Kink and LGBTQIA+ communities.
I am licensed in California and Oregon.
