I believe relationship between a counselor and client is the cornerstone of the growth and healing process. My counseling style integrates various research-based therapies to tailor the best approach for each individual. As a board-certified Clinical Sexologist and Sex Therapist, I am dedicated to discovering innovative methods to help clients gain clarity and resolve their challenges. My goal for my clients is to support them in finding peace and learning to navigate life with grace.

I am a board-certified Clinical Sexologist, Sex Therapist, and Kink-Conscious Therapist, specializing in working with the LGBTQIA+ community, as well as those involved in kink, BDSM, and non-monogamous relationships. I have extensive experience working with trauma and am honored to support individuals navigating or living alternative lifestyles.
I understand that life is a personal journey, and sometimes we need guidance to navigate through it. My goal is to help you find peace and tranquility as we work through your personal struggles together. I would be honored to work with you. To schedule an appointment, please call, or email me. I look forward to hearing from you.
