Before diving into clinical work, I had the honor of serving as Lab Manager for the ONWARD Lab under Dr. Amy Moors. Our research delved into the diverse experiences of sexual and intimate relationships, shedding light on the stigma faced by communities engaged in consensual non-monogamy and kink. My passion for creating affirming therapy spaces led to the publication of articles and resources aimed at educating fellow therapists on the importance of inclusive practices.
