I believe all humans are built with an innate ability and impulse to move towards health and personal growth. Therefore, I view my role as a therapist to serve as an assistant to these natural inclinations, and empower clients in removing barriers to a full-filling and value congruent life. Clients seeking to work with me have an internal desire for change and are willing to step into vulnerability and accountability within the safe and supported space of a therapeutic relationship.
I am a AASECT Certified Sex Therapist and Somatic Experiencing Practitioner who specializes in problematic sexual behavior and trauma resolution. I offer an alternative model (OCSB) to the Sex Addiction approach (having let my CSAT lapse) that I believe offers a more humanistic and sustained approach to healing.
Making a decision to seek help for difficulties with gender, sexuality, relationships, and/or trauma takes immense courage and trust. This is truly sacred work and something I approach with the up-most integrity, confidentiality, and individualized care.
