Therapy is not about fixing what is broken. It is about restoring connection.
Individual Sex Therapy
Are you a woman that has spent years putting everyone else first? You might have lost touch with your own desire along the way. Are you in the thick of midlife: raising kids, building careers, supporting partners, and caring for aging parents, all at the same time.? There's little room left for you, let alone for pleasure.
Couples & Relationship Therapy
Do you and your partner still care about each other but feel stuck when it comes to sex and intimacy? Often one person wants more closeness while the other feels pressured, and the same conversation keeps ending in hurt feelings. Over time, distance grows, and many couples start to wonder if things can ever feel different.
LGBTQIA+ Affirming Therapy
Are you looking for an affirming space where you can feel more at home in your body, your relationships, and your sexuality? Have you spent years having to explain, defend, or hide who you are, even with past therapists or doctors? Here, you don't have to educate me or shrink yourself to be understood.
“I strive to assist my clients in identifying their strengths and improving their sense of self, which can improve the quality of their relationships with themselves and others. My approach combines clinical expertise with genuine compassion, creating a safe space where you can explore these deeply personal aspects of your life without judgment.”
