Professional statement

Before becoming a therapist, I was a voice teacher. I quickly realized my students wanted more than a voice lesson: they craved a safe place to express their feelings. So I felt called to give people a comforting environment to embody, explore, and learn about themselves without judgment or shame.

I work with adults and couples of various sexual orientations, gender identities, relationship dynamics, and lifestyles. I’m sex-positive, kink-allied, and gender-affirming, and I specialize in supporting couples where one partner is on the spectrum. While in session, I invite you to share via musical or artistic mediums as desired.

Specialties

LGBTQIA+ community, alternative lifestyles (e.g., BDSM, polyamory), and couples.

Modalities

Cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT), acceptance and commitment therapy (ACT), emotion-focused therapy (EFT), Imago therapy, internal family systems (IFS), gestalt, and mindfulness.

Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist in California — LMFT #139693

Master of Arts, Integral Counseling Psychology, California Institute of Integral Studies, 2020

Message to clients

You’ve read all the books and did all the research, but being in an open relationship is more complicated than it sounded. You thought you had it all figured out, but it turns out you’re just as lost as before. It was supposed to be an exciting time to explore and spice things up, but right now, you’re overwhelmed with anxiety and fear. You’re scared this will ruin your relationship, and jealousy has become a familiar presence. Something has to change.

You’re ready to embrace your open relationship and learn to have a fun and successful relationship without letting jealousy destroy your connection with your partner. You want to be able to ask for your needs to be met without the fear of being abandoned. You can talk to talk to your partner again without being afraid that this will be the end. I can help.

I am excited to be part of your amazing journey ahead. I help couples thrive in their changing dynamics by providing practical skills to overcome anxiety, fear, and jealousy, allowing them to connect on a deeper level, better understand each other, and confidently communicate their needs. You don't need to do this work alone. Call me, I am here for you.

Therapist's note

I also offer Afterpay, there's a 6% + .30 fee/transaction.

HOW IT WORKS:

My price for an individual session is $200. and for that afterpay fee (6% +.30/transaction), it would be $12.30, making the total: $212.30.

divide $212.30 by 4 payments: 1st three payments will be $53.08 and the last payment will be $53.06. :o) u will need to make the 1st payment on the day of the session, then 1 payment every 2 wks three times (total duration is 7 wks).
