I work with children (5+), teens, adults, and families who are navigating sexual behavior concerns, consent and boundary violations, pornography or intimacy struggles, or legal charges related to a sexual offense. I support both those who have been harmed and victims/survivors, as well as individuals who have caused harm or been identified as offenders. Many feel scared, ashamed, confused, or overwhelmed, while families often feel panicked and desperate for guidance, safety, healing, and a path forward grounded in honesty and change.

Welcome! I’m so glad you have found your way here.
Often we get swept up in the competing demands around us and forgo what we need. We can lose ourselves without even realizing it or maybe we never had the chance in the first place. Before we know it, we are stuck thinking, "Why can’t I seem to do what’s most important to me? What is most important to me anyway?" My hope is that together we can find healing and create a life you want to live. I think of my role as a guide offering a new perspective. A light in the dark.

Modern life has a way of creating disconnection—both from others and ourselves. Constant distractions, political differences, the relative ease of online interaction, and interpersonal anxieties, can make even those closest to us feel a million miles away. It can be difficult to break out of old patterns and unlearn harmful messages about your identity. If you are looking for ways to be more present for yourself and your loved ones, therapy can be a great tool to look into yourself and reconnect in a supportive and vulnerable environment.

A dear friend once told me, “stand strong, warrior,” and that message has stayed with me throughout my own healing journey.

I’m passionate about supporting LGBTQIA+ and BIPOC communities.
