Men. . .want to know a secret? Not all other men out there will shame you or judge you for having emotional vulnerability, for being your authentic self or for having slight curiosity to bonafide inquiry about your sexuality, your marriage/relationship, your sexual desires and parts of yourself that you feel you have never been able to share with your partner/spouse, family, or event close friends. Let's explore masculinity, sexuality and vulnerability together.

Trauma. It's that thing that we know we need to talk about but we don't want to talk about it. As someone who has taken their own healing journey through trauma into healing and recovery, I can share that working through trauma and PTSD will be both the scariest but most rewarding journey you will ever take! I have a strong passion for working with those who are experiencing PTSD due to interpersonal violence, traumatic events, or historical family trauma. I'm here to witness to your healing.

Let's talk about sex. The "bright and shiny" to the "dark and the scary." As a clinician who has worked in sex therapy for the past few years, I have had some very candid conversations with folx about relationships ranging from casual sex to ENM/poly relationships to long-term monogamy. I have helped many work the kinks out (pun intended) around exploring BDSM, fetish, and kink dynamics. I have also managed and surprised a community health program focused on mental and sexual health.

I have extensively trained in Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR) Therapy with the Maiberger Institute, the Trauma Therapist Institute and the Trauma Institute and Child Trauma Institute. I am currently pursuing formal certification as a Certified EMDR Therapist and EMDR Consultant and Trainer. I have successfully treated a wide array of client concerns with EMDR Therapy including sexual trauma, addictive and compulsive behaviors and Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder.

I have gained valuable experience as sex therapist in private group practice by providing sex-positive, ENM/poly-affirming and BDSM/kink-aware and competent clinical care to a wonderful group of clients who include men exploring their sexuality and relationships; members of the LGBTQ+ community; BDSM/kink practitioners; and individuals, couples and relationships who are exploring relationship hierarchy and structure, boundaries, and power dynamics. Sex is connecting, beautiful, and healing!

The framework of my therapeutic relationship with my clients is based on the core principles of Person-Centered (Rogerian) Therapy: empathy, unconditional positive regard and congruence. The top priority in my client relationships is therapeutic rapport and safety throughout the course of our time together. This means providing clients with the ability to take their perspective, provide a non-judgmental space for exploration and growth and consistently show up as my authentic self.
