Sex and relationship therapy is a specialized form of psychotherapy that addresses concerns related to sexual health, intimacy, and relationships. It involves exploring the emotional, psychological, and physical aspects of intimacy with your partner(s) in a supportive and non-judgmental space.

Every relationship goes through seasons. Some bring closeness and ease; others, distance or unmet needs. Sex and relationship therapy helps partners to better understand these dynamics, improve communication, and rebuild emotional and physical intimacy.

Not at all! I provide partnered sex and relationship therapy for partners in all kinds of relationship structures. This includes, but is not limited to, couples, polyamorous constellations, and other consensual partnerships.

I work with people of all backgrounds and identities on a variety of presenting sexual and relationship concerns. I am more than happy to meet with you if you believe my services may be of help to you.

I specialize in working with erotically marginalized clients such as clients who identify as 2SLGBTQIA+, kinky, non-monogamous, and/or sex workers.

Erotic marginalization refers to the social stigma, misunderstanding, or exclusion experienced by people whose bodies, sexual desires, orientations, or expressions fall outside dominant cultural norms. This marginalization can lead to feelings of isolation and shame, and can create barriers to accessing affirming sexual and mental health care. My approach is grounded in respect and understanding of these realities, with a commitment to honoring and valuing all identities, desires, and ways of experiencing and expressing sexuality.

During the initial session, we will meet all together and talk about what’s bringing you in as well as your goals for therapy. It’s also a space for you to ask questions, see how I work, and decide if this feels like a good fit.

From there, I will schedule individual sessions with each partner and send over a questionnaire related to sex, relationships, and identities to be completed prior to the session. Completing the questionnaire in advance of our individual session provides me with more context and allows us more time to focus on what is most relevant to your presenting concerns.

We will then come back together in the shared space.

Sessions include a mix of sex and relationship-focused psychoeducation, practical tools tailored to your specific relationship dynamics, at-home practices to strengthen connection, and ongoing therapeutic support. You can also expect some humor along the way —it’s important to give ourselves permission to be human, even while doing meaningful work.

You are under no obligation to share anything you're uncomfortable with. Therapy is about your comfort and healing, and we'll proceed at a pace that feels right for you.

The duration of therapy varies based on your unique needs. Some clients experience relief after a few sessions, while others may engage in longer-term therapy. One of the benefits of not going through insurance is that we’re not limited by their rules about how often you can come in or how long sessions should be. Instead, we can work together to determine the appropriate pace.

Absolutely! Your privacy is paramount. By not billing insurance, I am able to maintain a higher level of confidentiality, as your personal information is not shared with insurance companies. When insurance is involved, they often require detailed information about diagnosis, treatment plans, and progress.

Everything discussed in therapy is confidential, with a few exceptions required by law — such as concerns about safety or mandated reporting of abuse. For a full explanation of how your information is protected, please see my Notice of Privacy Practices.
