I'm glad you've found my page! If you're looking to develop tools to regulate your emotions, communicate more effectively, and improve your connections with the people in your life, you've come to the right place. Maybe you'd like to navigate complex poly dynamics through setting healthier boundaries or work through jealousy, fear, or insecurity. Maybe you'd like to have your partners understand you better or set different expectations within your sexual or romantic relationships (poly, open, or mono). If you want to shake things up and start changing your life, check out my website to learn more about how I can help.
I provide judgment-free support and can help you manage emotional distress, improve balance in your life, and establish positive communication patterns. I work predominately with people who identify as poly, trans, queer, and individuals in the kink community. I have expertise in attachment styles, existential issues, and general anxiety and depression.
I have worked in mental health, substance use, and sexual healthcare, so I've pretty much seen it, heard it, and worked with it all. This is a place with no judgments. No psychobabble. Just two people having a collaborative conversation, working toward your goals. If you're looking to grow more as a person, reach out to schedule an appointment.
