Short Description (199 characters max)
I am a trauma-informed, sex-positive psychotherapist offering telehealth sessions to clients in California. My practice is affirming and supportive for gender, sexuality, and relationship diversity (GSRD) from early adulthood to later life.
Description (2950 characters max)
With a nurturing and non-judgmental approach, I help individuals and relationships explore their desires, overcome obstacles, and create fulfilling sexual and relational lives. I aim to provide a grounded and warm space for clients to explore the parts of themselves that are challenging to sit with alone. I am kink-affirming, queer-affirming, and non-monogamy-affirming!

I aim to provide a grounded and warm space for you to explore the parts of you that are challenging to sit with on your own. My services are inclusive and designed for individuals and relationships from early adulthood to later life. In individual therapy, I address concerns such as anxiety, mood disorders, sexual trauma, sexual orientation, gender expression, relationship orientation, religious trauma, and spiritual existentialism. In relationship therapy, I address communication challenges, sexuality concerns, conflict-resolution, and relationship transitions. And if what troubles you is not explicitly listed here, I might still be able to work with you. The human condition is expansive.

I know it can be really challenging to know if a therapist will be a good match just by reading website content, so please feel free to reach out and book a free consultation call with me to get a better sense of the work I offer and how I might support your healing journey. And if it seems like we are not a good fit, I will provide you with guidance on other therapists and modalities that might meet what you are seeking.
