Embarking on the journey of self-discovery and personal growth includes exploring aspects of your life that are deeply interconnected. As a sex therapist specializing in working with young adults, I am committed to helping you navigate the complexities of anxiety, eating disorders, ADHD, and the intricate realm of sexual well-being. I am a dedicated therapist with a passion for guiding young adults through the challenges of this transformative phase. In addition to my expertise in anxiety, eating disorders, and ADHD, I bring a specialized focus on sexual health and relationships.
Collaboration is at the core of my therapeutic philosophy. Through a client-centered and trauma-informed approach, we explore your thoughts, feelings, and behaviors without judgment. I am LGBTQ+ and sex work/worker affirming. Together, we create a safe and empathetic environment to address the multifaceted aspects of your life.
Beginning the journey of self-improvement involves acknowledging and addressing various facets of life. If you're a young adult seeking support for anxiety, eating disorders, ADHD, or exploring aspects of sexuality and sexual health, I'm here to guide you. Contact me today to schedule a consultation, and let's create your path towards holistic well-being.
