I offer therapy for individuals and couples, specializing in alternative lifestyles, including non-monogamy, polyamory, BDSM/kink, and sex work. Utilizing Gottman's couples methods, I address relationship and intimacy issues, helping you navigate the complexities of your unique lifestyle and its societal pressures with understanding and depth. My work is committed to promoting emotional resilience and connection within a safe, non-judgemental, supportive environment. Let’s collaborate to foster your growth and well-being. Together, we'll explore new paths to enhance your relationships and personal growth.
Together we delve into the emotional depths of relationship dynamics, emphasizing open communication and trust. We challenge conventional norms and foster unique paths to intimacy and connection, ensuring a non-conservative, affirming space. My approach is integrative, rooted in Psychodynamic theory, tailored for those exploring alternative lifestyles.
