As a strengths-based therapist, I invest in getting to know the person behind the “problem” – your uniqueness, your joy, your story.
I provide individual and relationship therapy for adults and people in romantic and/or sexual relationships. My clients often seek therapy for relationship stress, identity exploration (gender, sexuality, relationships), life transitions, and experiences of depression, anxiety, and trauma. As an inclusive, sex-positive, multiculturally-informed therapist, I specialize in working with sexual and gender minorities (LGBTQ+), ethnic-racial minorities, and polyamorous, kinky, or alternative lifestyle individuals.
My goal is to provide an inclusive, safe space to explore all aspects of your identity and leave feeling empowered to live authentically
As a team, we will work together to challenge the obstacles in your path and deepen your relationship with yourself and others. I believe in utilizing narrative, solution-focused, and client-centered theories to help you become the best version of yourself. I provide an inclusive, sex-positive approach to navigating individual, relational, and societal problems. Whether you are a young adult embarking on a new journey or a person with a rich history, you are the expert in what living an authentic life looks like for you. Therapy is your place to challenge the limiting messages that we receive and reclaim a sense of power over your life again.
