Welcome! I am a Queer, culturally Jewish, sex-positive couples and individual therapist, and I am so glad you’ve made your way here. I find passion in guiding individuals, couples/polycules, and groups to deepen their emotional, physical, and spiritual intimacy. As I see it, you are the expert on your own life. My role is to collaborate with you as you deepen into self exploration. Sometimes it is helpful to have an outside perspective to help you see things in a new and reflective way.

How you feel towards yourself can profoundly impact your relationships, work, school, and more. And a lot can make it hard to feel your best. You might be: Exhausted by a relentless self-critical voice...Considering your next steps to feel authentically aligned with your gender and sexuality...Struggling with boundaries and people-pleasing... Stressed and stuck in your closest relationships...Curious about non-monogamy but unsure where to start...Looking for nonjudgmental guidance navigating dynamics within polyamory and kink — not to mention managing all of this under capitalism. No wonder you'd like support!

I work with a diversity of folks in my office in Alameda and virtually throughout California. In my practice, I love working with adolescents, young adults, adults, and older adults. I have a special interest in working with clients who identify as LGBTQIA+ and/or queer, folks who are questioning and exploring their identities, and individuals who are going through transitions. My clinical interests include anxiety, depression, trauma, grief, sexuality and asexuality, attachment, and relationship issues. I identify as a queer, white, and Jewish woman, and I understand the ways in which our social and cultural identities impact us.

Relationships can be hard. Partners struggle with communication, conflicting parenting styles, sexual expressions... Life's challenges, hurtful fights, history of trauma or infidelity make it difficult to sustain trust and closeness. How can you create desired connections, and not lose yourself in the process? How can you be true both to self and to your partnership? I invite you to explore these questions together with empathy and curiosity, letting go of habitual judgments, self-deprecation, and shame. I work with individuals, couples, and families. Both traditional and alternative lifestyles are welcome, and no issue is a taboo.

Telehealth Only - As a psychotherapist, it’s an honor to be a witness and facilitator to client transformation, resilience, and growth. My perceptiveness, compassion, and holding of a nonjudgmental space allow discovery and observation of patterns that may no longer be helpful. I see my work through a social justice perspective and understand oppression itself as a form of stress and trauma. As a mixed-race and multicultural person of African-American and Jewish ancestry, I honor experiences of intersecting identities and am deeply interested in intergenerational trauma and resilience.

Whatever you’re experiencing, I hope to walk the line of being a support to you in your experience and by your side, while also, empathetically being a source of information that can provide evidence based practices as well as an experiential framework to help you get what you want. I plan on taking an awareness-based approach. I want to build your awareness so you can make more informed decisions. I want to co-create an environment that allows you to bring your whole self to therapy so that you can heal and grow.
