You might be exploring relationships, identity, sexuality, or adjusting to a life transition like relationship changes, relocation, a career shift, loss, or coming out.
I offer a compassionate, collaborative space based in authenticity. I integrate IFS, CBT, and mindfulness, and am EMDR-trained to support meaningful change. Together we’ll build emotional clarity, strengthen self-trust, and develop practical tools for growth. I specialize in LGBTQ+ affirming care, trauma, anxiety, identity exploration, and sex therapy.

I am a doctoral licensed psychologist and certified sex therapist with specialized experience in addressing sexual and relational concerns such as intimacy, communication, desire, arousal, pain, kink, atypical sexual interests, and sexual behavior challenges as well as postpartum stress, cancer, major health-related changes, or chronic illness.
Therapy is an invaluable opportunity for individuals and couples to learn about themselves and the relationships that they want to cultivate. Whether you are thinking about working through a particular issue, hoping to gain clarity and focus in future decisions, or considering a short-term "check-up", I will work with you in a safe, non-judgmental space that cultivates compassion, healing, and growth. I believe in the power of building on each person/couple's strengths and discovering, through a collaborative approach, new ways to adapt and grow.

I specialize in Emotionally Focused Therapy and Sex Therapy.
My ideal clients are those who are experiencing difficulties with their relationships and are looking for a compassionate person to validate that what they are experiencing is real and legitimate. I enjoy working with clients who have decided that wherever they are is not where they want to be and today is the day to make change. Therapy is not always easy or fast, but it has the power to shift one from hopeless to joyful for those who are willing to do the hard work.

Throughout my work, I have learned that many people feel confused, lost, alone and ashamed when it comes to sex.

I also run a weekly psychotherapy group for these men. If you are interested in joining the group or referring a client, feel free to contact me to learn more.

Sometimes we find ourselves lost and need help getting back on the path to our best selves. Therapy can assist you on getting back on that path through collaborative self discovery. I believe people are the experts of their own experiences and together we can find and repair tools that are going to get you to where you want to go.

Renowned marital researcher John Gottman and sex therapy innovator David Schnarch were my mentors.
You're ready to confront the problems that are holding you back from happiness, unsatisfying relationships, or professional growth. Perhaps you hit rock bottom or have mild issues that need fine-tuning of emotional skills. We'll first clarify your life goals, identify the barriers to achieving them, and learn how deep you need to dig to get what you want. I've developed a scientific method that lets you" take your mental temperature" to see if you are in a normal or dysfunctional state of mind and to pinpoint areas that need improvement. Whatever, the problems, they are a springboard to transformation and growth.

I am licensed as a clinical social worker and a marriage and family therapist, and I am also an AASECT-certified sex therapist.
I concentrate on helping patients explore and enrich emotional and sexual intimacy, improve their communication skills, and address conflicts in relationships. I am equally comfortable navigating current concerns and challenges, while also working 'below the surface' to explore factors that influence the capacity to feel more authentic and valued.

I offer a nonjudgmental space for those navigating issues of intimacy, desire, and relational complexity. True therapeutic progress often involves confronting deep-seated emotional wounds and fears; through sustained, reflective work, we can uncover the internal conflicts that keep you feeling stuck and move toward greater emotional freedom.

My areas of speciality are in working with women in life transitions, with individuals who identify as LGBTQIA+, and with individuals experiencing issues around sexuality and relationship functioning.
I believe that we have all had experiences that shape our sense of the world and impact our relationships with others. My approach to therapy involves exploring how past experiences impact the present and helping my clients use those insights to make active and healthy changes around their sense of self and in their relationships.

Do you feel like you're constantly letting people down, even when you're trying your hardest? You're successful on paper, but inside you're scattered, forgetting commitments, saying yes when you mean no. The pressure to perform is relentless at work, and your relationships are strained because you're either hyperfocused on tasks or too overwhelmed to show up. Shame and guilt are constant companions. Maybe it's ADHD, maybe it's anxiety, maybe it's just how your brain works, but adulting feels impossible. Intimacy brings more stress than connection. You're exhausted from white-knuckling through life and ready to understand why.
