I help people who want to better understand themselves, including their personal identities, goals, and values; we are all wonderfully unique, but are often are held back by shame, guilt, and what or who we’ve been taught we “should” be. I support individuals by overcoming blocking beliefs that limit us, so that they can better understand and accept themselves. This affirmation of self can increase self-esteem, help us understand others, and by extension, improve relationships.
I love sharing knowledge about topics I’m passionate about, especially related to self-concept, sexual orientation, gender identity, harm reduction, culture and history. As a sexologist with a PhD in Human Sexuality, I take a holistic approach and incorporate this worldview into all areas of my personal and professional life.
I know from my own lived experiences that mental health and self-acceptance are an ongoing journey. We all need support at times, and having affirming spaces to safety explore your emotions is invaluable. Therapy starts to break the shame cycle; receiving empathy instead of shame is a powerful experience and important step towards healing.
