Is it difficult to trust others or your partner? Do you find yourself avoiding people or lacking energy to do the things you enjoy? Would you like a better relationship with yourself and others? I am cisgender LGBTQ affirmative therapist, my goal is to provide a sex positive environment for you to be authentically who you are, without judgment. During short term treatment I will provide you with tools to find practical solutions to your challenges.
Sexual trauma, sexual dysfunction, intimacy challenges, couple in crisis, and issues with addiction comprise the bulk of my client caseload. I find that adults can hold the impact of childhood trauma for years before seeking psychotherapy and often mask their pain with anxiety, depression, difficulties with vulnerability and substance use.
My intention is to help you transition to a place where you feel grounded, connected and empowered in your daily life. I welcome your phone call. I am here to support you through this healing journey, every step of the way!
