As a sex therapist, I am trained to address a wide range of sexual health issues and concerns. Sexuality often carries stigma, but it's important to recognize that mental health issues can impact sexual well-being, and vice versa. I offer a sex-positive approach and am experienced in working with diverse sexual minority populations. Whether you're dealing with sexual dysfunction, seeking gender-affirming care, navigating relationship dynamics (including polyamory), exploring your sexual identity, discovering new kinks, or simply need someone to talk to, I am here to provide a safe and supportive space for your healing journey.

You have been sitting with your thoughts and seem to recycle your memories. You are excellent at suppressing your hurt and stay busy with work and life as a distraction. You may no longer connect with others the way you used to and keep friends and family at a distance. The Pandemic may have increased your anxiety and depression and you are uncertain where to begin. Your worry and fear come out as: anger, sadness and controlling behaviors, due to questioning your worth and self esteem. Will I ever feel truly happy? Will I feel truly loved? Will I find my life path and the career that makes my soul soar? Will I learn to forgive?

I am often contacted by clients unable to derive pleasure from their daily lives. At times, these problems are clearly linked to anxiety, depression, or to inner conflicts. However, at other times, clients are not able to point to specific symptoms, but rather are troubled by a vague sense of dissatisfaction that complicates relationships, work life, or their ability to be successful in school or in other pursuits. Previous attempts to solve these problems through the use of medications or by focusing on behavior or cognitions have proven less than satisfactory, and have led to an interest in trying insight-oriented psychotherapy.

My philosophy as a therapist is to always meet the client where they're in life. This could include conflict with a spouse, children or any of the number of curveballs life throws at us. Life has many stressors and changes that can be difficult to handle at times and my goal is to help you through these challenges.

As of Sep 2024 I am not accepting new clients. We all have some form of inner strength or resilience, but that can be hard to access when we’re feeling overwhelmed or stressed or in crisis. Life changes, anxiety, depression, chronic illness, college, work (to name a few) are all factors in our life that can be difficult to navigate at one time or another. Whatever it is that’s motivating you to seek help; you don’t have to go it alone. I provide an emotionally safe, caring, and non-judgmental space where we can work together to find your unique path forward.
