My clients express frustration with relationships and a need for guidance at a difficult time. We are- many of us- working to heal from family conflict and to recover from disordered eating, insufficient sleep, and an overabundance of substance usage in society. Living in an atmosphere of fear, blame, and comparison we seek to grow and thrive in our current world.

Are you anxious or stressed? A bit of a perfectionist for whom things are not perfect? Are past events getting in the way of what you want to do in the present? I love working with adults and teens dealing with anxiety or panic, trauma (including complex trauma), creative/entertainment industry issues, relationships, and identity issues.
We provide psychotherapy, sex & relationship therapy and coaching to individuals, couples, throuples, family, chosen family members, and more. We support your mental health journey and are especially inclusive of lifestyles such as: BIPOC, polyamory/swinger/nonmonogamy, LGBTQIA, genderfluid, sexual/social minorities, kink, BDSM, sex worker communities, intersectionality and variations in and within sexual expression. We offer Trauma Support.
Are there moments when you feel overwhelmed, tired of feeling stressed, anxious, and discouraged from life events that are out of your control? Maybe you have experienced a significant loss like a relationship ending, a job loss, a move, loss of financial security, or the death of a loved one? All life changes both positive and negative can throw you into grief, a state of disequilibrium, where you struggle to find a new normal or you experience difficulties in your relationships.
I provide therapy to a diverse population of adults and work closely with First and Second Generation Hispanic/Latinx Individuals.

I specialize in men's issues, relationship struggles, anxiety, low self-worth, and help all my clients to prioritize their self-care as they navigate burnout and boundary setting. I'm sensitive to themes of people pleasing, perfectionism, internet/gaming addiction, life/career transitions, and work/life balance. I collaborate with clients of all backgrounds and lifestyles in both English and Spanish. I take pride in supporting couples (poly/kink friendly) and individuals (LGBTQI+ affirmative).
Do you feel overwhelmed by stress, anxiety or defeat, as a result of a significant life change or trauma? Maybe a relationship has ended or a new phase of life has just begun. Perhaps you’re living with the long-term effects of abuse, illness/pain or other traumatic experiences. You may feel unsafe & out of control of your life or emotions. Eventually, these things start to overflow into other areas of life...and yet despite how hard things are right now, you know there’s more to life than this.
Being human is hard. When two different people, flaws and all, form a relationship, it’s harder. When those two decide that they want to swing with other couples, that can be even more complicated. Or perhaps they decide to open up their relationship on occasion. What are the boundaries? How about when those two humans become part of a triad, or quad? There might be some unique challenges with that choice as well. And jealousy! Navigating yours, and theirs, is not for the faint of heart.
In Today's World, we often find ourselves in really complex issues. If you are feeling a bit lost, that’s ok. Struggles with overwhelm, feeling burdened, searching for self and relational complexities are a normal part of living. Navigating Modern Challenges with Compassion and Insight is Key. It is important to have healthy strategies in place and create a way forward. Regardless of the challenges, therapy isn't just about coping; it's about thriving.

I have a particular interest in working with clients experiencing life transitions in their career and interpersonal relationships. My own background includes working with highly creative individuals, and I encourage clients to bring their creative work into the therapeutic process.
Do you get caught in repetitive unhealthy cycles? Anxious thought loops or the same relationship mistakes over and over? Our fast-paced culture can be challenging for personal growth, but together we can collaborate to find tools that work for you. Whether you are seeking happiness in relationships, anxiety management, healing from trauma or better ways to communicate, we can work together toward your goals.

It's important to work with a therapist who really gets you! Our therapists appreciate that we each have unique stories that shape us and that we all want to know that we belong. We work with diverse clients and specialize in helping you create more meaningful relationships & intimacy, heal trauma, cope with oppression & toxic culture, navigate life transitions, manage anxiety, embrace intersections of identity, feel more empowered as Highly Sensitive People, and feel less broken or alone.
So many of us are searching for who we truly are. We’re so encapsulated in who we should be being for others, that we end up losing ourselves. This shows up most frequently in intimate relationships. Our desire for unconditional love from another supersedes our need for physical connection. Emotion trumps sexuality. And what goes on within our mind shuts down the abilities of our body. Are you feeling lost in your relationship? Are you craving more intimacy?

I am an AASECT certified Sex Therapist, who works with individuals and couples who identify as LGBTQIA+, Kinky, Sex Workers, or practice Polyamory/Consensual Non-monogamy. I help any client interested in experiencing a more fulfilling and balanced relationship with sexuality or gender and is looking to heal from trauma.
I strive to create a safe and affirming space for clients to engage and connect with their whole self. I am passionate about working with individuals, partners, young adults and the LGBTQIA+ community struggling with libido, erectile issues, self-esteem, trauma, spirituality, desire discrepancy, infidelity, intimacy, gender identity, and sexual orientation. My ideal clients are ready to fully show up and claim their pleasure.
While I work with a wide range of folks, I tend to be the person folks come to when other therapies haven't worked. Relational Somatic Psychotherapy is a deep and powerful therapeutic approach. It works at a very deep and primal level. We combine neuro-biologically informed treatment with mindfulness, movement, traditional talk therapy, drama therapy and more, all in the container of our relationship.
