Do you ever feel like you need to go to therapy because other people in your life didn't? If so, I may be a good match for you. As a trauma-focused and AASECT certified sex therapist, no topic is off limits at my practice. I primarily work with people processing relationship difficulties, working through sexual issues, or recovering from traumatic experiences (in childhood or more recent), but I have a passion for supporting people looking for more general counseling services too. I love working with queer people, teenagers, sex workers, and people who are discovering themselves later in life!
Trained as a CPT and EMDR therapist, my main expertise is in recovering from stressful life experience. I have over a decade of experience working with people who have been impacted by sexual trauma specifically and supported many people as they reclaim their sexuality. I believe my mission is to help people discover clarity within the chaos.
Please know that whatever your identity is, you are welcomed and accepted at my practice. I believe that sexuality should be celebrated, and my goal is to empower and support people in living their best lives. If you feel like I might be a good fit for your needs, please feel free to reach out and set up a consultation.
