Are you ready to let old patterns go and bring new energy into your life? Are you on a healing journey, but find yourself stuck in a particular area of your life? I believe that pleasure is a vital component of happiness, and that through therapy individuals and couples can learn the right tools to achieve mental, emotional, spiritual, and sexual health. I help folks explore who they are in a safe environment that is supportive of each person’s path to self-love and acceptance. I work with couples to address communication issues and help them to build stronger, more intimate connections. Through genuine curiosity and empathy, I work to create a safe, judgment-free space that invites clients to ask questions and discuss intimate topics with both gravity and levity. Sexual & relationship concerns, infidelity, depression, anxiety, self-esteem, and life transitions are the emphasis of my work. I value social justice and use a systems-oriented lens. I seek to empower clients to take responsibility over creating change for themselves. My style is conversational, warm, thoughtful, direct, and collaborative, and at times, humorous and playful. I can help you to move through the stuck places and move you forward on your path. I want to see you thrive!
