I offer an open, non-judgemental space where you can speak honestly about your thoughts and experiences while working towards your personal goals. As a queer, trauma-informed sex therapist, I enjoy working together to deconstruct the social scripts, pressures and ‘shoulds’ that often get in the way of our growth, healing and liberation. Some areas that I am especially passionate about working with are anxiety, self-esteem, life transitions, gender identity, sexuality, relationship dynamics, existential questioning, sexual trauma and chronic pain.

I provide psychotherapy to young adults, adults, couples and families who would like to explore trauma, anxiety, and relationships. I am passionate about working with clients who are self-explorers, question askers, and have a profound desire to increase well-being. I specialize in the treatment of relational trauma, anxiety symptoms, relationship and attachment challenges. Our work will help you develop self-understanding + self-compassion, improve your relationship to self + others, build self-esteem + self-worth, challenge perfectionism + people pleasing, learn to set healthy boundaries, build coping skills and healthy habits.

I use a variety of practices and therapies, including: EMDR, Somatic Experiencing, CBT, Motivational Interviewing, and Trauma Informed Therapy. My process is always to ask you, the client, what it is you want, what would that look like, and what is in your way. Then we collaborate to get you there!

I am passionate about your personal growth and helping you identify and achieve your life goals. I use attachment theory and somatic awareness as a means to help you identify your thoughts and feelings and heal from trauma. We will work to increase understanding, coping skills, and focus through the exploration of your unique story in a safe and supportive environment.

Wouldn’t it be great to live the life you imagined? A life not weighed down by your past, experiences, consistent worry, and sadness. I support people in creating a life free of emotional constraints and self defeating limitations. Empowering you to learn practical tools, explore new coping mechanisms and develop self confidence and compassion which will positively affect your ability to communicate, develop and maintain relationships and manage your stress. Finding balance and sustainable joy by healing and understanding your past and present is paramount in our work. As we work improvement spreads throughout your life.

Are you struggling with anxiety, self-criticism, and doubt? Traumas often leave us feeling like there is something wrong with us when there is not. Therapy can help address these difficult thoughts and feelings of shame in a supportive environment. In therapy, we can even learn to befriend ourselves. As a LMFT, I have experience supporting clients through issues related to trauma, PTSD, anxiety, depression, and grief. I am passionate about the exploration of sex, sexuality and identity. I also specialize in working with individuals navigating illness including chronic pain, medical trauma, grief, and meaning making.

Our pain is often the beginning of our greatest awakenings. If you are struggling with low self-esteem, anxiety, stagnancy, or general unhappiness in your life and work, chances are, your symptoms have an important message to deliver. Perhaps your discomfort has shown up to point you toward unresolved grief or trauma. It may also be a sign that old ways of being are no longer working. In adulthood, and particularly in mid-life, the strategies we adopted as children to get love and protect ourselves can act like roadblocks to the deep connection we crave with ourselves and others.

I deeply believe in the healing process and an individual's innate capacity for transformation. With over a decade of experience working as a clinical therapist, I believe it's not about working harder but working smarter. Our goal is primarily to identify all of the blocks (namely old patterns, limiting beliefs, old habits, patterns of avoidance, etc.) that are interfering with your brain and body's natural tendency towards healing. This can show up as addictions, chronic pain, anxiety, or depression. Whatever you're working through, your system will guide us towards healing and, ultimately, equilibrium.

My group practice specializes in sex therapy. When intimacy wanes, our intimate relationships can perpetuate stress around sexuality. I work to get partners back safely towards trust &connection, reclaim sexuality, pleasure while healing relational stress/tension/trauma. My group practice and I have extensive experience with ENM/CNM, LGBTQIA, gender variant, non-monogamous, polyamorous, kink, erotic laborers. We offer somatic sex therapy, emotion focused therapy, DBT and trauma centered (both systemic/social and personal). We address harmful constructs which affect sexuality, gender expression and relationships. We ar 100% virtual.

If at this moment you find yourself seeking guidance but are unsure of where to turn, first know that these are perfectly natural uncertainties to have around finding the help you seek. In fact, these questions demonstrate your resilience and awareness - you've still got your wits about you! My therapeutic practice is dedicated to supporting individuals, couples, and families grappling with an array of challenges including depression, isolation, anxiety, trauma, relational conflicts, and existential unease.

These are extremely challenging times that are testing your ability to be there for your partner, yourself & your family. You're trying to make sense of where you are in this world while doing your best to show up for your relationships & obligations. I understand where you're at & will help to slow things down so you can get a better sense of what you need & where you want to go. Sometimes you need help to see the forest from the trees & I will you get there. Call me for a free consultation, I got you.

Anyone can give advice.  In my experience, people come to therapy looking for something they cannot get anywhere else. Usually they are struggling with anxiety, depression, or some other issue that they have not been able to solve on their own. How does therapy help? My philosophy is that we heal through relationship—not in isolation. So rather than providing a list of pre-scripted tools, I strive to develop genuine connections with my clients. But beyond simply looking for relief from troubling symptoms, my goal is to help you create the life you want to live.

Your best therapist is a witness to your life. Your hope is that if your pain and struggle is seen by another, so will your desires, resilience, and resourcefulness. My place in your therapy is to see you, hear you, and reflect your power back to you. Sharing your journey lets me witness your transformations, big and small. I see and ask: How has systemic oppression affected you, your family, and your communities? I work with Clients anywhere on the spectrums of gender/sexuality, (non)religion, ability, and cultural & racial identity; who express body and sex positivity everywhere from asexual to kink…monogamous to poly…and beyond.

Are you feeling overwhelmed, anxious, or struggling to cope with life's challenges? Taking that first step to ask for help can be daunting, but you've already shown courage by considering it. Just like standing at the edge of a high dive, it can feel scary and intimidating. But remember, you're not alone, and reaching out for support is a significant achievement in itself.

"Time does not heal all wounds; it just gives them space to sink into the subconscious, where they continue to impact your emotions and behavior. What heals is going inward, loving yourself, accepting yourself, listening to your needs, addressing your attachments and emotional history and following your intuition" (Yung Pueblo). I partner with my clients to help them find their voice, tell their story, re-engage their strengths and cultivate new ways to stay mindful and grounded—no matter what life throws at them. I work with couples and adults suffering from depression, anxiety, relationship challenges and LGBTQI-related issues.
