About My Clients

I have extensive experience supporting individuals navigating life transitions, anxiety, and depression; exploring gender and sexual identity; engaging in non-monogamous relationships; living with chronic pain; and confronting existential dilemmas. It is a privilege to work alongside individuals and couples within my community, providing support for the LGBTQIA community and non tradition relationship structures.

My Background and Approach

My therapeutic approach is affirmative, relational, and sex-positive, with a collaborative focus at its core.

I view my role as a guide, helping clients explore their values, core beliefs, and relationships, empowering them to take an active role in effecting meaningful change.
