I engage well with clients from varying ethnicities, and clients that might describe their experience as unique. I also have a number of celebrity clients, pastors and wives, business owners and couples who seek someone to be honest and direct. I don't believe in wasting time in session and "running the clock." Our experience will be intense, refreshing, and reflective. If you are seeking out a therapist that others can identify your change and development, then if schedule permits, perhaps we will have a spirit experience in session.

You may be used to holding it all together for everyone else, only to feel overwhelmed, disconnected, or unsure of who you are beneath it all. Whether you're struggling with anxiety, relationship struggles, or the effects of trauma, therapy can be a place to slow down, make sense of what's happening, and reconnect with yourself. As a therapist I strive to meet you where you are, offering an open minded, nonjudgemental presence that allows you to feel truly seen and heard. Therapy with me is warm, compassionate, and grounded in curiosity. You can show up however you need to show up. There isn't a "right" way to be here.

My clients I typically see are couples, individuals, or teens who feel stuck, misunderstood, or disconnected. They might be arguing more, feeling anxious, or just trying to figure out who they are and what they want. They’re looking for a safe space to talk, learn better ways to communicate, manage stress, and rebuild trust—whether that’s in their relationship or within themselves. Deep down, they just want to feel heard, supported, and more at peace in their life and connections.

I’ve dedicated my life to helping individuals who have experienced trauma and are seeking deep, meaningful change.
Life is full of challenges, and sometimes those challenges can feel overwhelming. But as Joshua J. Marine wisely said, “Challenges are what make life interesting; overcoming them makes life meaningful.” My goal is to create a safe, supportive space where you feel empowered to break through barriers and build a life rooted in growth, healing, and self-reliance. I believe every person carries a powerful story—and that you have the strength to shape that story into something purposeful and true.

Sex-Positive, Kink Allied Therapists
Why might an individual want to see a sex-positive, kink-allied therapist?
A sex-positive or kinky individual may want to see a sex-positive, kink-allied therapist because the client may feel safer and more supported discussing their experiences and challenges. A therapist who identifies as kink-friendly will have experience with clients having diverse sexual preferences and will likely be nonjudgmental and supportive about issues brought to the table. It is important to note that sex-positive, kink-allied individuals may find equal success with therapists who do not have such specialized knowledge and background. The most important factor in the success of therapy is for the client and practitioner to form a strong, trusting bond.
Do therapists have special training to gain expertise in sex-positive, kink-allied treatment?
Generally, no. There are limited training programs and unofficial accreditations that therapists can pursue, but a therapist’s expertise will ultimately come from their previous experience with similar clients, their engagement with organizations that promote sex positivity or kink-allied lifestyles, and the importance they place on safety and cultural sensitivity.
How can individuals recognize a good sex-positive, kink-allied therapist?
An experienced therapist is able to help clients explore their sexual identity and expression and relieve any discomfort or stigma attached to discussing such matters and the client’s overall challenges. A therapist who is sex-positive and kink-allied is able to create an environment that honors a client’s experience and sexual preferences. To recognize a good therapist, clients can simply ask directly about topics and issues important to them and gauge their comfort level and connection with a clinician based on the responses.
Can clients benefit from having a therapist with a focus on sex positivity and alternative sexual lifestyles?
Some individuals may feel most comfortable knowing that the clinician they’re working with has a commitment to creating an atmosphere of sex positivity and has experience with relationship diversity and alternative relationship structures. Working with a sex-positive, kink-allied therapist may help clients respect their own challenges and improve identity-affirming treatment.
