I am a sex-positive, LGBTQIA-affirmative, polyamory-friendly, and kink-aware therapist. I work with individuals across a broad spectrum, providing a safe and supportive space to explore life challenges and changes. I offer compassionate, collaborative, and non-judgmental therapy, where we will explore both your struggles and successes, learning together how you want to move through life with greater confidence, clarity, and self-acceptance. .

Get to know me

In our first session together, here's what you can expect

In our first session together, we'll start with brief introductions, then dive into the specific challenges you're facing. This will help me create a tailored plan for us to work through in follow-up sessions.

The biggest strengths that I bring into our sessions

As a provider, my greatest strengths are my compassion, empathy, and ability to create a safe, affirming space for my clients. I take a laid-back approach that helps build trust and allows clients to feel heard and supported as they work toward their goals.

The clients I'm best positioned to serve

I work with individuals on topics including anxiety, sexual and gender identity, coming out, non-traditional relationships and families, polyamory and CNM, and sex and intimacy. I have a passion for working with the LGBTQIA community & their loved ones.

My treatment methods

Person-centered (Rogerian)

My approach to therapy is fundamentally collaborative and affirming. I am here to meet you where you're at so we can make steps down your personal path together. I want to help you to better understand your own feelings, thoughts, behaviors, and means of coping to move you toward feeling more like your authentic self.
