Do you ever feel disconnected, overwhelmed, or unsure how to communicate your needs, wants and desires? I work with folks who want deeper emotional and sexual intimacy, clarity in their identity, and relief from stress, shame, or patterns that keep them stuck. Their goal is to feel understood, confident, and closer to themselves or their partner. They want peace, connection, and a relationship that finally feels safe and fulfilling.
I help individuals improve communication, rebuild intimacy, and understand the emotions driving their patterns. I offer a warm, affirming space to explore identity, desire, and connection. Together, we reduce shame, strengthen relationships, and create deeper emotional and sexual closeness.
I know reaching out for help can feel overwhelming, especially when you’ve been carrying so much on your own. You’re not alone; I offer a warm, affirming space to explore your story, build confidence, and find healing. Your well-being truly matters. I offer a free 15min consult consult to see if we're a good fit.

My approach is eclectic, meaning I draw from several evidence-based methods to tailor therapy to each client's unique needs. I frequently use (CBT) while I integrate person-centered and strengths-based approaches. I also incorporate relational therapy, emphasizing the importance of connection, trust, and authenticity—both within the therapeutic relationship and in your life outside of sessions.
