Grief

Sexuality, intimacy, identity – these are some of the most personal parts of being human. When pain, trauma, anxiety, or shame show up around these topics, it can feel isolating. I specialize in helping adults (18+) navigate sexual health, trauma recovery, and emotional wellness. Whether you’re working through sexual trauma, intimacy challenges, or anxiety, therapy can be a place to explore safely and reclaim your story.

Alongside sexual health, I support clients facing trauma, chronic illness, body image issues, and anxiety. These challenges often overlap, affecting relationships and overall well-being.

What Clients Appreciate About Working with Me

Clients often tell me they feel truly seen, understood, and empowered after our sessions. They appreciate my ability to help them get to the root of issues without judgment – and the mix of empathy, strategy, and sometimes a little laughter I bring to our work.

Our sessions aren’t about “fixing” you. They’re about creating space to explore, heal, and reconnect to the parts of yourself that have always been whole.

A Little About Me

I live five minutes from the beach with my husband and our two rescue pups, and we take every opportunity to soak up the salt air and sunshine. I’m also an avid reader, a believer in slow mornings, and once made a cameo as an extra on One Tree Hill – a fun reminder that life often holds unexpected moments of joy.
