Great to meet you!

I am a licensed professional counselor (LPC) and sex therapist. I obtained my master's degree in clinical mental health counseling from Capella University and earned my certificate in sex therapy at Antioch University. Whether your concern is focused on sexual dysfunction, needing gender-affirming care, dealing with relationship issues, exploring more about yourself sexually, discovering new kinks, or just needing someone to talk to, I am here to provide a safe and healing environment.

A bit about my approach to therapy

Sex is an integral part of our lives; however, sometimes, we struggle with our sexual health. Sex therapy provides a safe and affirming environment to address a variety of issues that may be impacting your sexuality. Whether you're dealing with a lack of desire, sexual trauma, sexual pain, sexual dysfunctions, or anything else, we will work together to develop a treatment plan that will help you reclaim your sex life and get back to feeling whole.

What you can expect from our first session

I provide a welcoming and affirming environment where we will work together to ensure that you receive the best mental health services tailored to your needs so that you can heal, learn, and grow. During the first session we will complete your intake paperwork, which will focus on me asking about your life experiences, the reason for seeking therapy, and address any questions or concerns you have.
