Accepting New Clients for Kick Ass Therapy! I specialize in marginalized populations including LGBTQIA+, ethically and consensual non-monogamy/polyamory, BDSM and Leather, with authentic space, support, solutions and celebration of identity. Looking for a real person to talk to? Looking for someone who walks the walk and talks the talk, where you don't have to educate your therapist about your lifestyle or automatically have it blamed for all your issues? From sex therapy to self acceptance, I specialize in unique individuals, couples & polycules. I meet clients where they are emotionally, helping them progress and heal. You matter!
I work a lot with shame and self-compassion, creating a safe environment for people to explore themselves and their world. Using an eclectic approach including existential and hybrid theories, creating a holistic view of the client, I focus on individual needs and positivity. I believe in the power of emotional support, affirmations and genuine caring space.
My clients feel for varying reasons that they are bad, wrong or don't belong. No matter what anyone has told you, you are deserving. You are worth the time and energy to heal and be healthy. You can be who you want in your life unapologetically. You can serve the community and make an impact. I make my impact by helping you heal so you can be your best self.

I use an eclectic approach with various modalities, woo and neuroscience. I especially enjoy existential and parts work modalities, as they create a holistic view of the person paired with an understanding of the wider world. I employ flexibility in putting these puzzle pieces together, as we are dynamic beings with ever evolving experiences and deserve to be treated with intention and care.
