As a queer, nontraditional, alternative lifestyle affirming therapist my passion lies with supporting others to create, explore and integrate sexuality in their lives.
I am committed to providing a safe space for clients to explore their deepest intimacies and create positive change. My own identities inform my work and as a result I place a high importance on being sex work-, poly/CNM-, kink-, and LGBTQIA+ affirming.
I enjoy working with motivated clients who are interested in navigating the complexities of their intimate lives with openness and honesty. I enjoy working with individuals, couples, and multi partner relationships exploring sexuality, intimacy, sexual functioning, power dynamics, and communication.
I strive to create a therapeutic space where clients will not be pathologized, where strengths will be recognized, laughter encouraged and vulnerability respected.
In my personal life you can find me walking my furry co-worker, sipping fancy coffee, tending to my almost functional garden, and connecting with my chosen family over a home cooked meal.
To explore if we might be a good fit, take the leap and contact me for a consultation.
About Your Therapist
I practice from a pleasure-focused, culturally-sensitive, trauma-informed, and systems lens. I center the intersectional-feminist and social justice perspectives. In sessions, I reflect on the impact of the systems we operate within. These can include the family, community, capitalism, and politics. Despite the harm these systems create I believe all people deserve to feel good and create pleasure in their lives. I pull from person-centered, narrative, and emotion-focused techniques. I believe the therapeutic relationship is a co-constructed and collaborative process in which the client and therapist work together to determine the best approach. I utilize my training in evidence based treatments and I also believe therapy is more of an art than a science.
