Maybe your relationship(s) don’t look like what society considers to be traditional. Maybe you’ve been feeling unsatisfied with a “vanilla” sex life. Or maybe you feel confident in your sexuality and relationships, but you’re looking for a therapist that understands an alternative lifestyle and the unique struggles that can entail. Whatever the case may be, I want my clients to walk into the room knowing judgment holds no place here and neither do assumptions.

If you’ve been shamed in the past for your interests, that does not exist in this space. If someone has made an ignorant speculation that trauma has influenced your choices, that holds no place in my office. If there’s ever been a time where someone has invalidated any uniqueness that makes up you, please know we aren’t doing that here! These are my non-negotiables and you feeling safe to explore your requirements for connection and intimacy is my main concern.

Here we are going to create an environment of curiosity. While a large part of society may be filled with sex-negative ideas and taboos that go against the mainstream, here we are going to embrace those individuals that are often considered to be sexual outsiders and part of an altsex community. I hope that our relationship will be one built on trust, respect, and autonomy. Whether you’re experiencing any level of internalized stigma, fear, or discomfort regarding your interests, I want this to be a friendly place where I can support you in exploring the wide variety of ways human beings enjoy each other or themselves.

If you’re ready to feel empowered to begin your exploration or continue on the journey you’ve already started, I’d love to get to know you!
