About My Clients

I strive to cultivate a safe space for clients while promoting a strong sense of self in the individual with a long-term, goal-oriented approach. This is done in a warm, empathetic environment that promotes vulnerability and connection. I work with artists and other creative individuals in helping them to achieve their professional and personal goals

My Background and Approach

Therapy can be essential in treating addiction. While most treatment programs offer a one-size-fits-all approach to recovery, I offer an alternative to traditional addiction treatment programs, focusing on the root causes of addiction, rather than just the substance use. This approach to therapy takes a judgment-free, collaborative approach to support your set goals and regain a sense of self and purpose. Veering away from “tough love” or abstinence-only programs, I base evidence-based treatment models on the latest research and provide respectful, compassionate care with a focus on long-term success, not quick fixes.

My Personal Beliefs and Interests

I support everyone’s orientation, gender, kink, and how they choose to identify themselves and seek to help people allow for different aspects of their sexual selves get what they want out of love, relationships, and sex. I work with people struggling with identity and collaborate with them to find their own working definitions, even if those definitions don’t fit the mainstream or change over time. Working within sexual fluidity, bi-sexuality, and kink-positive therapy, I help people to develop and support alternative relationship structures, create strong bonds, and find a community that supports their choices.
