I primarily work with couples and relationships, including LGBTQ+ and poly partnerships, individuals, and families. Whether your relationship feels stuck, is changing, or is just beginning, I help clients strengthen communication, deepen connections, and understand unhelpful relational patterns. If intimacy feels confusing, pressured, or disconnected, or if you’re exploring new desires, identities, or boundaries, I provide a supportive and affirming space for you.
Grounded in evidence-based practice, science, and compassion, I help clients understand the why behind their patterns and build new ones at a pace that feels right. My approach is sex-positive and inclusive, and I have specialized training in sex therapy that respects both desire and hesitation.
Sex and relationships are personal. So is healing. I offer a safe, affirming space free of shame or judgment. If you're ready to explore your sexuality, relationship, heal from what's held you back, or finally feel seen in your experience, therapy can be a starting place. You're not broken, and you're not alone.

I often use an integrated solution-focused approach in my practice. In your first session, we'll explore what brought you to therapy and then collaborate on your goals and how to reach them.
