I work with people who feel the weight of their own awareness, those questioning who they are, who they love, and what it all means. My work centers around existential angst, identity exploration, and the longing for real connection. Whether you’re unpacking patterns in intimacy, navigating sexuality or kink, or confronting a sense of emptiness that won’t quiet down, therapy becomes a space to explore what it means to live authentically in your own skin.
My style is relational, direct, and grounded in curiosity. I don’t offer quick fixes, but rather conversation, reflection, and a space to meet yourself more honestly.
Kink-affirming, LGBTQIA+-friendly, and deeply human.
