I specialize in sex, BDSM, kink, and ethical non-monogamy. Taking the first step toward transformation is the hardest part, and you just did it! I use an integrative and holistic approach to help you pull out the weeds from the roots. I work from a foundation of attachment theory and I utilize Emotionally Focused Therapy (EFT). I am trained in Accelerated Experiential Dynamic Psychotherapy (AEDP), Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR), and also incorporate the body, yoga, mindfulness, meditation, and music all as tools to expand and explore what is happening in your life.
I take a special interest in sexuality and intimacy. For couples, I support in improving intimacy and exploring other lifestyles that you both may want to incorporate, things like kink, BDSM, polyamory or open relationships, and ethical non-monogamy. For individuals, I have a passion for exploring sexuality and finding what lifestyle genuinely works for you.
I also have a passion for working with members of the LGBTQ+ community. My priority is to build a strong therapeutic alliance for us to collaboratively work towards your goals. All the answers you seek are already inside you; and sometimes, you need to break down before you break through. Please visit my website to learn more!
