Senior Therapist, Supervisor

I focus on sex counseling, utilizing a supportive approach when providing individual, partners, and couples counseling. I draw on a range of disciplines, cultures, and frameworks. My therapy orientation is supported by gender studies, critical race theory, sex therapy, public health, education, sexology, queer theory, spirituality, feminist criticism, music, public policy, and the wisdom acquired from my clients.

My psychotherapy interventions are founded on relationship building. My clients are diverse but have in common the desire for connection, a curiosity about themselves, and their search for a place where their gender, sexuality, culture, and relationship orientations are affirmed. I work with many people who identify variously as BIPOC, LGBTQQIP2SAA, kink, non-monogamous, adult children of alcoholics, spiritual, and allies.

​During the academic calendar year, I supervise second-year social work interns, providing more access for people who would otherwise not be able to receive therapy at a private practice. 

My clients are diverse but have in common the desire for connection, a curiosity about themselves, and their search for a place where their gender, sexuality, culture, and relationship orientations are affirmed.
