As an AASECT certified sex therapist, my intention is to be inclusive, purposeful and down to earth in serving clients through a sex positive lens.
Whatever you are experiencing - sexuality or relationship concerns, life transitions - all of it matters and so do you. In individual and relationship work, I operate through a systemic sex therapy lens which encompasses: individual biology & psychology, family-of-origin, dyadic issues, sociocultural issues and how those systems work together in your world.

I don’t see you as an illness to be cured, but as a fellow human!
I practice cultural humility and am always learning about our intersectional identities, including sexuality, gender identity, and race. Living today can be stressful, and while we may not immediately be able to change the world, our everyday actions do shape a world that can work better for all of us. Every day, we navigate complex, oppressive systems and personal challenges. Yet some psychological suffering may be unnecessary. When we stop fighting with our emotional experience, we can embrace life’s challenges and live fully.

Are you stuck in negative thought spirals, conflicting emotions, and difficulty moving on from painful memories? You don’t have to remain stuck in those patterns alone. Together, we’ll dive deeper underneath the anxious beliefs, discovering who you are at your core, and creating positive behavioral changes to embrace each part of yourself. I want to empower you to feel safer experiencing emotions that we typically shy away from and learn to work with our mind instead of against it. My counseling style can be described as warm, direct, kind, and humorous to also make counseling something you look forward to.

My mission as a therapist is to help anyone who feels discouraged, uncertain, unheard, isolated, or even overwhelmed work through these difficult life experiences. Far too often, we feel the crushing weight of insecurity and disempowerment often brought on by depression, anxiety, trauma, substance abuse, and relationship issues. To offer ourselves healing in this life, we are called upon to mend the wounds that are both challenging and scary to confront. As you begin your path of empowerment, allow me to walk alongside you to work together to bring change, acceptance, and light into your life.

Clients often work with me because they have experienced trauma/marginalization in their lives that holds them back from living in accordance with their deepest desires, especially as it pertains to the formation and embodiment of their identity. Oftentimes these concerns manifest as PTSD, anxiety, and depression. My work is focused on compassionately exploring and processing your stories to inform how you want to move forward by developing a greater sense of connectedness with your holistic being. I specialize in working with the LGBTQ+ community although my approach has shown efficacy with clients outside these demographics.

Reaching out for counseling can be scary or intimidating. It can also be challenging to find the right "fit" with a therapist. I hope to offer a place where clients can feel seen, heard, and appreciated. Seeking counseling can help you make sense of your past, present, and your future. If you are feeling down, anxious, lost, or just off and your current coping skills aren't working, starting therapy might be a good next step.
