Eros is the concept of “life force,” and guides my therapeutic work at every stage. I draw on the neuroscience of our attachment and nervous systems, which asserts that every one of us—regardless of our culture, family history, or sexual and gender identity—are wired to seek belonging and intimate connection with others. I invite you to expand your idea of ‘normal’ and challenge the status quo on intimacy and relationships.

I want to help you make sense of all the parts of you: your nervous system states, relational longings, identity, and ways of connecting to self/others so you can be the most alive and creative version of yourself.

I show up in the therapeutic space with tenderness, curiosity, and humor. I greatly enjoy helping you slow down into your body and relationships so you can savor every moment of this precious life. I’ll be a cheerleader for you as you build sexual satisfaction, increase your ability to take emotional risks, incorporate eroticism and play in your life, repair attachment wounds, and explore aspects of your sexual and gender identity.

I am a certified sex therapist through AASECT (American Association of Sexuality Educators, Counselors, and Therapists) and I have a Masters in Social Work from the Brown School at Washington University in St. Louis. I’ve received specialized training in Sex Therapy, Emotion Focused Therapy, Ego-State/IFS Therapy, Somatic Therapy, and EMDR.

In my free time I delight in being with my queer community, spending time in the sun, and engaging in intellectual play. I’m dedicated to continuing to unpack my privileged identities and work from an anti-oppressive and anti-racist lens. I feel such genuine excitement and gratitude that I get to make a career out of guiding you to connect to yourself and others in new, erotic, and secure ways.
