Hello Fellow Human,

I am a sex and relationship therapist with a focus on BDSM and kink. Clients have found that my approach being direct with care and affirming have aided in reaching their goals. I believe that connection with others can lead to healing and use a collaborative approach.

I am licensed therapist in Texas, Colorado and Illinois with 19 years of professional work experience. I am well versed in helping clients with stress and anxiety, relationship issues, grief and loss, motivation, self esteem and confidence. I have 16+ years of work with the United States military both stateside and abroad. I have my doctorate in Clinical Psychology and I am certified as an Addictions Specialist.

With a nursing career spanning since 2008, I have dedicated over 15 years to understanding the complexities of patient care. After earning my Master’s Degree in 2021, I transitioned into advanced psychiatric practice in 2022. Having served in both fast-paced inpatient units and collaborative outpatient clinics, I offer a well-rounded perspective on mental health. My background allows me to blend clinical expertise with a deeply rooted compassion for the human experience.

I have been a therapist for 30 years, and I love it. I love talking with people, getting to know people & helping them uncover their strengths, to help define a path forward. I have been lucky enough to work with so many different people, from different back grounds, in multiple settings. I am here to hold space for you, to provide a safe, non-judgmental place in your life.

Clients often describe me as approachable, practical, and easy to talk to. Therapy should be a collaborative process, and I strive to create a space where you feel comfortable being yourself without fear of judgment. My style balances support with practical problem-solving, helping clients gain insight while also developing strategies they can use in everyday life. Above all, I want you to feel heard, understood, and supported as we work toward your goals together.
