Are you stuck in a sex rut? Maybe you've done therapy, are a solid communicator and think you and your partner should be able to figure it out on your own . . . but it's confusing and you're just not getting anywhere. I can help! Through proper assessment, education and skill building, I help my clients to achieve emotional mastery, ask the right questions and ultimately feel close, excited and passionate again. While sex can be a sensitive subject, I am to make the process of creating more intimacy as fun and easy as possible for you. Reach out and book a free Intimacy Breakthrough Call so we can see if it's a fit.
In addition to 1-on-1 and couples coaching, I also offer an ENM (ethical non-monogamy) group coaching program called "Open." Scroll to the bottom of this page for more details! NOTE: I do not accept any insurance plans. However, I do have an intern offering low-fee sessions for $75 for those who could benefit. Email for more info.
I'm kink-knowledgeable, poly-affirming, LGBTQ-allied and sex worker allied. Visit my website to request your free Intimacy Breakthrough Call. During the call we'll go over your current struggles, goals for the future and my suggestions for how you can get there. If it seems like a great fit on both sides, I'll share about options for working together : ).

Groups
The ENM Support Squad: A Group Coaching Experience
Join a 6-week online support group for those in or exploring Ethically Non-Monogamous (ENM/CNM) relationships. We’ll meet weekly via Zoom to explore topics like navigating new relationships, choosing your non-monogamy style, healthy boundaries, managing insecure attachment, and enhancing communication. This group is open to all gender identities and sexual orientations. We’ll ensure a safer space for queer, neurodivergent, BIPOC, disabled, sex worker, and kinky participants through screening all participants. If you miss a week, submit questions and receive the recording. New groups start every 6 weeks—contact me to set up your free consultation and learn more!
