Selecting the "right" therapist can be a challenging process. I believe that the relationship between client and therapist begins with the establishment of trust and a desire to grow. I value authenticity, empathy, humor, respect for self and other, and put these values to work in session. My areas of specialty include issues surrounding sexuality and gender, sexual dysfunction, childhood, religious & sexual trauma, the LGBTQIA+ population and those seeking purpose or deeper meaning in life. I aim to meet my clients where they are, holding space for exploration of self, empowerment for growth, and reclamation of their joy for life. The ideal client is seeking answers to big questions that may be distressing with a willingness to work through some initial discomfort in order to address and heal areas of their life that have been painful. I believe that therapy should always be a safe environment, but "comfort" may need to be challenged in order for this transformative change to occur. Please feel free to contact me for a free, 15-minute phone consultation to determine whether we are a good therapeutic match. I look forward to hearing from you!
