I believe we are all doing the best we can. I model curiosity, empathy & harm reduction, so you can unlearn self-criticism, judgment & punishment, which are not effective tools of change. I am trained first & foremost as a holistic counselor. My underlying orientation is that the body, mind, & spirit are connected. Nervous system dysregulation keeps us from feeling & acting our best. Through the modalities of EMDR, polyvagal theory and IFS, you will calm your nervous system, rewire limiting beliefs & find freedom from the pain of the past. Our sessions will not be a review of your week. My goal is to help you create lasting change.

I work with clients from a very wide diversity of experiences and identities. I have significant experience focusing on issues of sexual functioning and pleasure, desire in longterm relationships, gender and/or sexual identity, and healing from sexual violence and/or complex trauma.

As every person is unique, I have learned that how I work is also unique to each therapeutic relationship. My clinical work integrates exploring and understanding one's deeply held values, and working to build a life that reflects these.
