I am a queer-identified, sex-positive psychologist experienced in working with a spectrum of sexual orientations, identities, and relationships. I help individuals and couples interested in discussing kink and consensual non-monogamy.

I also specialize in treating OCD (including "Pure O"), specific phobias, social anxiety, and relationship anxiety. My approach combines evidence-based exposure therapy to help reduce symptoms and break patterns of avoidance with deeper exploratory work aimed at understanding the underlying fears, beliefs, and experiences that contribute to anxiety. By addressing both the symptoms and their roots, I help clients create lasting change and greater freedom in their lives.

For individuals with OCD, I offer both Exposure and Response Prevention (ERP) and Inference-Based Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (I-CBT). If ERP doesn't feel like the right fit for you, or if you're interested in an alternative approach, I-CBT can be an effective treatment that targets the reasoning processes underlying obsessive doubt.

I currently accept insurance for group therapy only and have two OCD-focused groups with openings available.

My approach to therapy

My therapeutic style is client-centered, evidence-based, and a blend of warm and direct. Laughter, tears, swearing, dark humor, and stories about your pets are all welcome in sessions with me! If you’re ready to get started or you have any questions, I’d love to hear from you!

What you can expect from me

I prioritize a collaborative approach, working closely with clients to understand their unique experiences and challenges. Together, we will develop personalized treatment plans that align with your goals and values.
