Great to meet you!

I am a seasoned certified sex therapist and licensed clinical social worker.

I am a friendly and informed LGBTQIA and kink ally. I strive to offer an empathic, non-judgmental and supportive environment for all people of all genders, sexual preferences and relationship configurations to begin their journey into wellness.

I enjoy collaborating and supporting clients to heal from the past and find meaning and joy in the present.
