Are you a smart, out-of-the box thinker? I value curiosity, connection, and compassion when it comes to lifestyle, gender, sexuality, relationship, spiritual practices, and every other form of individual expression. I am committed to meeting you as a unique individual and offering support whatever your challenges. My hope is that you will leave our sessions feeling heard, strong and hopeful. I use various modalities, including Rapid Resolution Therapy to address what may be blocking desired change.
I am active in sessions, helping you experience yourself and life in new ways. I would be honored to support you through growth, exploration, and transition in any area of your life. I work with adults, couples, and older teens. If you like dogs, you will love Wilma and Bam-Bam. They will greet you when we meet in person, and snuggle if you want.
We all yearn for connection. If you are struggling in life, connection might be a central issue. I can help you recognize patterns that are no longer serving you and guide you to find new habits, skills, and attitudes that support you on your unique journey to connection, wholeness and happiness. I am sex-positive and LGBTQ and kink affirmative.
