Who you are… straight, transgender, bisexual, lesbian, gay, queer, genderqueer, questioning… is an essential part of our work together. I welcome your whole self, supporting traditional and non-traditional families: blended, multiracial, multigenerational, foster, poly, leather, and members of kink communities. Therapy promotes healing, growth, and change. We'll focus together to understand your thoughts and behaviors. Our work together will help you develop new coping skills. Growth happens by reinforcing your strengths and values, increasing your self-awareness, and help you build a tolerance for distress and ambiguity.
I am a skilled clinician with over 25 years of experience. I have specialized training in sex therapy, community mental health, adult and pediatric medical needs, hospice care, substance, sex, and debting addictions, obsessive-compulsive disorders, domestic violence, and surviving sexual, emotional, physical, and spiritual abuse.
We are still recovering from the impact of the pandemic that changed every aspect of our lives. I have extensive experience working with the impacts of COVID on the medical, social, and vocational changes as they affect our 'new normal.' We can walk together as the nation examines the impact of institutional racism and all forms of social injustice.
