Many of my clients come to me feeling disconnected - from themselves, their bodies, their relationships, or their true desires. Often this disconnection stems from past trauma, anxiety, or the pressures of performance and perfectionism that weigh heavily on our systems. People bring me things they might not feel safe talking about with other providers or even friends, such as body image issues, erectile dysfunction, childhood abuse, and identity concerns. I specialize in working with queer, nonmonogamous, and kinky folks, though I'm happy to show up for anyone who is ready to nurture a deeper sense of connection in their lives.
As a trauma-informed certified sex therapist, I'm here to offer you a safe and nonjudgmental space to explore all the things you've been afraid to say out loud. Together we'll build your sense of internal safety so that you have the confidence to navigate life's challenges and embrace all the parts of yourself that show up along the way.
I know that searching through a bunch of therapist profiles can be daunting, but I promise the process of therapy can be as fun and engaging as it is deep and challenging. Reach out to me if you're ready to get reacquainted - with your body, your loved ones, your sexuality, your pleasure, or your sense of self.

I have extensive training in sex therapy, as well as general therapy with sexual minority communities. Some people come to me for a few sessions to address specific problems. Others stay with me for a long time so that they can have a long-term support person who understands the intricacies of their life. Together, we'll determine the approach that best suits your situation.

My approach is most informed by IFS (also known as parts work), attachment theories, and narrative therapy, though I integrate other modalities as appropriate based on your specific needs. I believe that a safe, collaborative relationship with your therapist is a core component of treatment, so we'll spend some time getting to know each other and making sure we feel like a good fit.
