About My Clients

While I tailor my methods to each client's unique needs, I often incorporate Emotionally Focused Therapy, which complements sex therapy and adapts well to non-monogamous and kink-affirming relationships. Many of my clients have dubbed me the "breakup therapist" for my ability to support them through relationship endings, divorces, and the journey toward understanding and breaking unhealthy cycles.

My Background and Approach

I believe that authenticity plays a crucial role in building a strong and trusting therapeutic relationship. In my counseling sessions, not only do the identities of my client’s matter, but so does my own. I embrace my unique personality, which I'd describe as 'spicy,' and it informs the interventions I utilize, drawing from approaches like Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), Emotion Focused Therapy (EFT) and Cognitive-Behavioral Therapy (CBT). Many of my clients appreciate my therapeutic style, which often involves kindly challenging their automatic negative thoughts, behaviors, and relational patterns. However, it's important to note that this approach may not align with the gentler approach that some clients prefer. I prioritize open communication and collaboration with my clients to ensure that our counseling journey is tailored to their needs and preferences.

My Personal Beliefs and Interests

I'm deeply passionate about assisting individuals and partners in navigating their intimate lives and embracing their genuine sexual selves. I strive to create a welcoming environment where you can feel safe exploring your desires, overcoming challenges, and fostering a healthy relationship with your sexuality.
