About My Clients

My clinical interests include working with individuals and couples who are looking to improve their relationship, communication and sex life; working with the ethically non-monogamous, the LGBTQ+ and kink communities, the neurodivergent folx, and clients who genuinely would love to experience more pleasure and satisfaction in their lives and relationships.

My Background and Approach

My style can be described as compassionate, relational and direct. Vulnerability and openness are values I hold in high regard and I model this by showing up authentically in the therapy room. I ask questions to help deepen understanding and prompt exploration of self and partners. I work from a queer and neurodivergent affirming, anti-oppressive, anti-racism and health at every size (HAES) lens. My learning and growth in this area is always evolving. I earned my Master of Science (MS) in Marriage and Family Therapy from Capella University and have been a therapist for the better part of a decade. I have additional specialized training in sex therapy, couples therapy and affair recovery (Gottman), trauma therapy (EMDR) and working with ADHD and Autism.
