Compassionate + Pragmatic Therapy.
For Individuals and Couples. Available Online and In-Person.
Maybe you’re here because…
You’ve been feeling stressed by school, work, or family. You feel disconnected from the people or activities you care about. At times, you might feel alone.
You’ve been through an experience that has rattled you. Now you find yourself feeling anxious, down, angry, or like you aren’t sure of yourself or the world anymore.
Your relationship is at a crossroads. You’re struggling to connect emotionally, physically, or both, and it seems like the harder you try, the worse it gets, and you've run out of ideas on how to work this out on your own.
Let’s work together to get you back in connection to yourself and the people and life that you care so deeply about.

INDIVIDUAL THERAPY
Reconnect with your sense of purpose and meaning.
Drifting. Going through the motions. Always on to the next thing. So many responsibilities: work, school, family, relationships. With all of these demands, you've lost touch with who you are and what you want in life.
Or perhaps you've been through something that shook your sense of control, and of who you are. You want to start writing the story of your own life again.
It might also be that you're curious about your relationship to desire, intimacy, or your own sexual and gender identity, and you want a place to explore that.
Using research-backed treatments, including EMDR (Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing) for trauma and my training as an AASECT-certified sex therapist, we can work together to tap into the strengths you already have as well as learn new skills to not only cope with stress but to actually grow from it.
COUPLES THERAPY
Work on challenges in your relationship.
You might be at a decision point in your relationship, perhaps considering a big step like marriage, buying a home, or having a child. These are not easy decisions or ones to be taken lightly.
Or perhaps you’ve been growing distant, and you aren’t sure how to find your way back to each other. The ease between you and your physical connection is all but gone.
You’ve tried to address the issues yourself, but feel like you just keep ending up in the same place. You’d like to have someone who will guide through all the complexities. I can be that guide.
COUPLES & SEX THERAPY INTENSIVES
Short time commitment. Long lasting impact.
Imagine having the chance to face your toughest relationship challenges with an expert right there by your side, with the time to actually work it through and not worry that the hour is almost up. No waiting until next week. No backsliding in between sessions.
Maybe communication issues have built up over time and carving out space for weekly therapy hasn't been realistic. Maybe there's a big change on the horizon and you want to understand each other's perspective before you get there. Or your sex life isn't working and it feels difficult to even bring up.
An Intensive is focused therapy in a condensed timeframe, typically from a half day up to two days, drawing on the modalities of the Developmental Model for couples, Emotionally Focused Couples Therapy (EFCT), trauma-based training, and my work as a Certified Sex Therapist. For some couples an intensive stands on its own, with a follow-up session to bring what you've practiced into real life. For others it's a jump start into ongoing work together. I'm glad to do either.
SEX THERAPY FOR INDIVIDUALS & COUPLES
Perhaps you feel disconnected from your sexual energy, experience of lack of desire, or feel your sexual sense of self needs more development to flourish.
Or you want to explore your sexual and/or gender identity in a supportive environment that fosters self-discovery. Or you would like to better understand the relationship among some of the sexual issues you’re dealing with - lack of desire, pain when having sex, anxiety or trauma related to sexual experiences, and medical issues which may impact desire and sexual functioning.
My aim is to create a judgment-free zone where there is lots of space to explore these concerns and deal with them in a straightforward, effective, and empowering way.
