I'm a Mental Health Clinician with over 20yrs experience, and also a Certified Sex Therapist. I work with LGBTQ+ and heterosexual people on a variety of relational and mental health issues, as well as sexual and intimacy concerns. I approach my work from a sexual health model and values driven perspective. I work with clients on consensual non-monogamy/polyam, kink, BDSM, as well as sexual health challenges such as erectile dysfunction, premature ejaculation, desire discrepancies, etc. I continue to work with mental health issues such as depression and anxiety, as well as navigating life!
Completing post graduate training in sexual health/ sex therapy through the University of Michigan (and then serving as The Director and Core Faculty in the Program) allows me to provide sex therapy from an informed and current perspective. I strive to create a safe space for clients to get help with issues that can often be very difficult to talk about.
Through a variety of treatment modalities, including a multicultural framework, I work collaboratively with my clients to find the ways to best address their concerns. Safety and confidentiality, as well as overall wellness, guide my work with clients. Although you may feel overwhelmed now, I can help you reach a healthier place.
