Asking for help can be a vulnerable and scary experience, but the results are often worth it. I am devoted to manifesting growth and stability with all my clients. I am an active, enthusiastic clinician who gives thoughtful feedback after listening carefully to the problem. I am an AASECT certified sex therapist specializing in working with people and populations wishing to explore their sexual identity, sexual functioning, communication, relationship styles, breaking up better, and different ways of living and loving in today's world. She offers evidence-based and out of the box ways of navigating life and relationships.
I have a particular soft spot for supporting queer and kinky populations as well as those practicing ENM and multiamory. I am attachment based in my work and pull from many therapeutic theories and disciplines such as somatic experiencing, IFS, David Search, Esther Perel, EFT, DBT, and Mindfulness practices to support her clinical interventions.
My philosophical, integrative approach to therapy is to create an opportunity for meaningful education, healing, and a celebration of life that's specific to a client's unique interests and goals without uncomfortable judgement or limiting assumptions. I enjoy balancing the science and art of therapy in my every day work with clients. Let's make magic!
