I am an insight-oriented, person-centered, and sex-positive therapist who leads with curiosity. I see clients of all identities, and I specialize in the care and unique needs of queer, kinky, and nonmonogamous people, as well as those with a background in sex work. I am skilled in helping clients navigate issues related to gender identity, sexuality, alternative relationship structures, life transitions, grief, anxiety, depression, and attachment concerns. My work is trauma-informed and driven by principles of consent. I will meet you where you are on your journey in a non-judgmental and compassionate way.
I am a graduate of the Silberman School of Social Work at Hunter College, with a specialized field of practice certificate in Gender and Sexuality. Before becoming a therapist, I spent 12 years working in theatre; as such, I integrate my experience working in artist care into my practice as a holistic-thinking clinician.
I see adult clients on an individual basis, and in relationship structures of two or more. I offer remote sessions as well as in-person sessions in lower Manhattan. My practice is guided by values of anti-oppression, and seeks to honor and celebrate client autonomy and individuality. I am looking forward to hearing from you!
