Through training and clinical experience, I am trauma-informed, body-positive, kink-aware and supportive of the LGBTQIA+ and sex work communities.
Welcome ! You may be looking to resolve relationship issues, to grow sexually, to reduce anxiety and frustrations, to work on trauma, to explore your desires or to understand yourself better. Working together, we can address these concerns as well as desire differences, relationship styles, identity, body image, gender consciousness, out of control sexual behavior and other issues. I see therapy as a collaborative effort that can result in real change. Therapy works best when you are seen, heard and understood. I will work with you in a non-judgmental way to understand you as an individual on your own terms.
