Relationships can become overwhelming and confusing. It can be helpful to work with someone on difficult and vulnerable issues you and your relationship(s) are experiencing. I support relationships that are experiencing hardship. I help relationships heal, grow and develop the skills, motivation, and capacity to overcome relationship challenges. I help relationships in regards to intimacy, sexuality, as well as other goals you have. I also work with individuals who are having sexual difficulties in general. Talking about sexual concerns can be hard. I provide a safe space to have supportive and safe conversations about sex.

Hello! I am a clinical mental health counseling intern. I practice therapy from a humanistic, person-centered lens. While my first therapists were Cognitive-Behavioral focused, I have grown to appreciate a more adaptive approach. I have an interest in psychodrama, trauma informed therapy, and positive psychology. As a member of the queer community myself, I am LGBTQIA+ affirming, ethical non-monogamy, and kink friendly. Feminist theory heavily influences my therapeutic perspective with regards to the overarching societal and social justice systems that impact all of our daily lives. I hope to one day specialize in sex therapy.

My private practice not only serves direct clients including couples, it also focuses on supervision for therapists, coaches, healthcare organizations, agencies, and companies.

I also teach for a global healing school, the 'Harvard' of schools in that realm. I help folks gain true alignment with core qualities, needs, and values that guide the transformative process toward happiness and joy.
