I specialize in sex and relationship therapy for polyamory & open relationships, kink & BDSM, queer & interracial relationships. I understand these issues because I've been there. I've been openly queer and poly for over 10 years, and in that time, I've built the life of my dreams from the ground up. I'm here to help you do the same! Imagine reclaiming the intimacy, trust, and pleasure you deserve — under the guidance of a skilled professional that actually gets you.
I take a sex-positive approach to help my clients with ethical non-monogamy, kink exploration, LGBTQ issues, out of control sexual behaviors (aka sex addiction), and sexual empowerment. I also help autistic / ADHD / neurodivergent adults navigate sex and dating in this neurotypical world.
Whether you're seeking to heal from past experiences, reignite old flames, or explore new desires with confidence, I am here to guide you every step of the way. Let's work together to unlock the vibrant, passionate life you've been dreaming of.
