When I imagine my ideal client, I see someone who is thoughtful, perceptive, and often harder on themselves than anyone else ever could be. On the outside, they may appear capable and composed. On the inside, they feel unsettled. They may identify as LGBTQIA+, trans, non-binary, neurodivergent, or part of consensual non-monogamous or kink communities. Many have spent years adapting to environments that required them to soften, hide, or over-function to stay safe. Over time, that constant adaptation has created exhaustion, shame, and a quiet sense of fragmentation.
I specialize in trauma-informed couples and sex therapy for LGBTQIA+ and neurodivergent adults navigating attachment wounds, intimacy challenges, and OCD. I offer structured, evidence-based support integrating Crucible Therapy, ERP, ACT, I-CBT, Parts work and somatic tools to rebuild connection and reduce shame.
If you’re exhausted from holding it all together while feeling disconnected inside, you’re not alone. Change is possible with steady, affirming support—if this resonates, I invite you to take the next step and begin.
