Whether you're seeking support for issues related to sex, kink, polyamory, or identity within the LGBTQ+ community, know that you're in a welcoming and affirming environment. I understand the importance of embracing diversity and celebrating the richness of human experience. My goal is to empower you to navigate these aspects of your life with confidence and authenticity. Together, we'll work collaboratively to explore your goals and develop strategies to help you live a more fulfilling and authentic life. You're not alone on this journey. I'm here to walk alongside you, offering guidance, support, and compassion every step of the way.

What can clients expect to take away from sessions with you?

During our first session we will start with introductions and greetings, discuss what brings you to therapy, and collaborate regarding the preferred structure and pace for our future meetings. Over the course of the next 2-3 sessions, we will undergo the process of assessment and end with goal setting.

Explain to clients what areas you feel are your biggest strengths.

Through 17 years of experience, I have honed an approach to therapy that provides unconditional positive regard and emotional safety to speak about anything and everything. I possess a strong sense of empathy and compassion, allowing me to truly understand and connect with my clients on a deep level, regardless of the emotions and experiences they bring to our sessions. I excel at active listening, paying close attention not only to the words they speak but also to their body language and emotional cues, which helps me grasp their needs and concerns more fully. My non-judgmental attitude creates a safe and welcoming space where clients feel comfortable expressing themselves without fear of criticism or condemnation. I approach each session with patience and support, celebrating even the smallest victories along the way.

My treatment methods

Attachment-based

I have spent the last 17 years identifying how children and adults play out their attachment wounds and need for healing. The anxiety that drives us to push toward closer connection versus the anxiety that overwhelms and repels us from connections helps to identify wants and needs in our relationships with others.

Couples Counseling

Over the last 15 years I have worked with couples to create increased emotional and physical intimacy using an eclectic approach to increase positive communication, understanding, and meaningful expression of affection.

Eclectic

Through training in the Gottman Method, Emotion Focused Therapy. and Attachment Therapy, I provide couples with an opportunity to learn how best to communicate their needs and experience emotional vulnerability with their partner.

Sex Therapy

Using an integrated approach, I assist individuals and couples develop increased emotional and physical intimacy. I can assist couples to explore new worlds of adventure and connection. I have extensive knowledge of kink, ethical non-monogamy, and gender non=conformity.
