Clinical Social Work/Therapist, LCSW, CST, EMDR certified
Last Updated 30+ days ago

Sometimes we can feel stressed and lost with relationships, our families, and ourselves. We all need
someone to listen to up. You might wish you could improve your sex life in your romantic relationships
or change your family and relationships interactions. Maybe you want to live a calm and peaceful life
and overcome past traumas that don't let you move on. Replaying your history over and over, wishing
things were different. It might be the way you think and treat yourself that brought you here.
I am LCSW, a certified sex & relationship therapist (AASECT), and EMDR certified who helps clients to
explore their sexuality and relationships and find the right place for them. My sex and relationship
approach addresses issues such as intimacy, parenting issues, broken trust, sexual identity exploration,
sex education, sexual dysfunction, vaginismus and pain disorders, open relationships, passion, sex
addiction, sexual trauma, pregnancy, and postpartum depression, changes in the family, relationships
and more.
I am working virtually with adults, older adults, individuals, families, couples, the LGBTQIA+ community,
kink, ENM, open relationships, and poly informed.
