You're feeling stuck in dating, navigating a breakup or divorce, noticing your relationship has lost its spark, or repeating the same patterns in emotional or physical intimacy. Maybe you're unsure how to express your needs, feel disconnected from what you want, or get caught in cycles of anxiety, self-doubt, or overthinking. Together, we'll understand what's keeping those patterns in place and explore new ways of responding. Through that process, you can begin to build greater clarity, communicate more openly, strengthen your self-trust, and create more grounded, authentic relationships, with yourself and with others.
I specialize in working with LGBTQ+ adults navigating the difficulties and stuck-ness in dating, relationships, and intimacy. I help you understand the patterns that hold you back, develop confidence in expressing your desires, and move toward relationships that feel more connected and honest.
If you’re feeling unsure of how to move to move forward, know that you're in the right place. If you’re looking for an LGBTQ+ -affirming therapist in California, you’re welcome to reach out to schedule a consultation. And if we're not the right fit, I'm happy to help you find that person.

I work with adults navigating the challenges of relationships and intimacy, grief, and those stressors of being a queer-identifying individual. Early sessions focus on understanding what's bringing you in and clarifying your goals. From there, we'll work together to build insight and self-trust, helping you find steps to move forward with more confidence and clarity within the first month.
