Specialties

Life transitions - Coping with difficult or impactful life changes, such as moving to a new area, relationship transitions, child rearing, or career changes; learning self-care to better manage resulting stress or life hacks you were not aware of

Alternative Lifestyle Counseling & Education - Understanding one’s wants and needs in relationships; exploring patterns of interaction, addressing concerns, and strengthening satisfaction in relationships and dating; exploring topics of sexual needs/wants; education surrounding ethical non-monogamy, swinging, polyamory, BDSM/KINK relationship and the different dynamics; how to navigate and honor boundaries while exploring within the lifestyle

Anxiety - Coping with excessive worry, nervousness, or stress; intense discomfort in social settings (social anxiety); sudden and intense feelings of panic (panic disorder)

Complex PTSD (C-PTSD) - Recovering from the impact of long-term, repeated traumatic events, such as emotional abuse and neglect, or experiencing continuous traumatic events throughout your lifetime

LGBTQIA, gender, & sexuality topics - Exploring topics of sexuality, gender, and identity; coping with discrimination and oppression; navigating relationship, family, and cultural challenges

ADHD - Help with handling everyday challenges like trouble paying attention, putting things off, and sticking to a routine. Together, we’ll practice accepting those tough feelings and thoughts instead of fighting them. You’ll also learn more about what it means to be neurodivergent and how to work with your brain in a way that feels good to you — so you can build habits that fit your life and what matters most to you.
