I am dedicated to helping people realize their personal and relational potential. My expertise and passion is in sex and relationship therapy, and LGBTQ, kink, and polyamory friendly work. I specialize in issues of trauma, sexual assault and abuse, and domestic violence. I assist people in understanding their unhelpful thinking patterns, navigating healthy relationship dynamics, and difficulties in communication.
My work ranges from problem solving and solution-focused, to deeper dynamic work that seeks understanding of self and relationship patterns and boundaries. In my couple's work, I focus on dismantling barriers to communication and addressing the needs of the individuals in the relationship as well as the relationship itself.
I am licensed to practice in DC, Maryland, and Virginia. I am currently only seeing clients via telehealth. I have sliding scale spots available, and can also provide the necessary documentation for those seeking out of network reimbursement. Pronouns: She/Her/Hers
