I'm a telehealth therapist who's passionate about providing individualized treatment to fit my clients' specific goals. I have a compassionate, non-preachy approach but don't believe in letting my clients coast by without doing any self-work as I sit back, silently nodding. I am certified in Ketamine Assisted Psychotherapy (KAP) and Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR), both of which I offer via telehealth. I believe that central to our struggles are our unmet needs, some past, some current, which have led us to compulsive/addictive behaviors and unhealthy attachments.
I'm openly queer and love working with those in the queer, kink, and/or non-monogamous communities. My specialties include ADHD, depressive disorders, anxiety disorders, all addictive behaviors, and trauma/PTSD. I offer individual and couples therapy, and support those of my clients who are striving to improve their relationship(s) and/or sex lives.
Together, let's find the root of your pain and attachment needs in order to heal and allow you to fully enjoy the present moment. This, I believe, is the definition of happiness and satisfaction. I'm here to listen and support you on your journey.
