All About Me

I am a licensed clinical social worker and certified sex therapist with extensive experience supporting couples and individuals facing sexual health concerns. My work addresses issues such as premature ejaculation, and decreased sexual interest, and I provide compassionate, evidence-informed care for a range of sexual health needs.

​

I have experience serving individuals and couples from diverse backgrounds, including polyamory, swinger lifestyles, BDSM, and LGBTQ+ communities. I also support clients exploring variations in sexual preferences, gender diversity, and gender dysphoria, with a client-centered approach that prioritizes safety, confidentiality, and inclusivity.

I am board-certified by the American Board of Sexology (ABS) and trained in EMDR, with substantial experience addressing trauma related to sexuality. I collaborate with each person or couple to foster healthy sexual well-being and authentic self-expression, supporting a path toward a sexual life that aligns with their identity and values.
