I am a sex and relationship therapist offering Telehealth sessions to clients in California.
Description (2950 characters max)
I am a sex-positive psychotherapist offering trauma-informed Telehealth sessions to individuals, couples, families, and polycules throughout California. My practice is affirming and supportive of gender, sexuality, and relationship diversity (GSRD) across all stages of life. With a nurturing, non-judgmental approach, I empower people to explore their desires, overcome obstacles, and build fulfilling relationships. I strive to provide a grounded, warm space for clients to navigate the parts of themselves that may feel challenging to explore alone. I am kink-affirming, queer-affirming, and non-monogamy-affirming!

No topic is "too much" for my therapy room. I work at your pace, ensuring that your feedback shapes our sessions. I am here to meet you wherever you are in your journey and follow your lead. My therapeutic approach combines a "here and now" Gestalt philosophy with evidence-based practices like the Gottman Method, CBT, DBT, and internal family systems (IFS).

I understand that finding the right therapist can be challenging based on a website alone. Please feel free to book a free consultation call, where you can get a better sense of my approach and see how we might collaborate on your healing journey. I look forward to speaking with you soon!
