“Sexuality is a spectrum, and is also always changing. This can be scary, but also exciting and fulfilling!”

Has something changed about your sexuality or sex life, and you’re afraid that you will lose your current partner(s) or community because of the ways you are changing? Do you feel confused about how to stay together, when the foundations of your bond seem gone? I am here as your therapist to help you co-create the new relationship dynamic you want. Just because your relationship looks different now, doesn’t mean the connection and love is gone.

I am passionate about sex positivity and working to unlearn shame and embarrassment that may be ingrained from past experiences. I aim to facilitate open communication between couples to ensure both parties are getting their needs met. When working with individual clients, I can help guide you in advocating for what you need in your relationships with others. When dealing with anxiety, depression, trauma, desire discrepancy, exploring sexuality, and emerging kink interests, things can feel isolating, but I will serve as your guide on this journey of rediscovering your Self.

My approach is grounded in narrative therapy. I want to help re-write the stories we tell about ourselves or our partners. We will discover the barriers to this, and challenge whether they are real or a narrative constructed in your head. Once we understand this, we can break down the barriers together, and some of them may fall away all on their own. I believe in recognizing societal privileges and hindrances and working within those intersections to realistically move towards self-improvement in a way that is right for you. I am a member of the LGBTQIA+ community, and specialize in working with queer individuals and couples. I am kink, poly, and sex-worker affirming.

I received my Bachelor of Arts degree in psychology from Clark University in Worcester, Massachusetts and my Master’s degree in Couple and Family therapy and Certificate in Sex Therapy from Adler University. My supervisor is Maia Easley, LMFT. I look forward to getting started with you!
