Therapy
Currently accepting new clients!
I love working with individuals and couples on a variety of issues and topics. I am passionate about therapy and creating a safe space that is inclusive and affirming of LGBTQIA2S+, BDSM, kink, and non-monogamy—one that is sex positive and non-judgmental. Sex positivity means that all of your relationship styles, identities, and consensual kinks will be affirmed and supported. Each person has their own unique intersectionality of characteristics, and I want you to feel safe to be yourself.
FAQs
What is your approach?
For me therapy is a collaborative process and you are the expert of your own life. I want us to work together to make a plan that feels right for you. I’m here to provide support, information, helpful tools and therapeutic techniques in a safe way that allows you to be yourself.
I believe in a strength-based holistic approach and draw from several counselling theories to best meet the needs of each client.
What happens in the first therapy session?
The first session is a chance for us to get to know each other, for me to answer any questions that you have about therapy, and for us to make sure it feels like I’m a good fit for you. I’ll ask you some questions to start to get to know you and the things you want to explore in therapy. After that, we’ll set some initial goals on what you want to get out of the therapeutic process.
