Hello and Welcome! It has been a dream of mine to become a therapist since I was about 11 years old. Sexual health discussions have never made me uncomfortable in any way, and I like to provide a safe space for clients to discuss these issues. Many people experience shame about their relationship preferences, kinks, and sexual orientation. So I like to help individuals and couples who may be struggling in this area. I also enjoy working with clients who are gender diverse, are thinking about or currently transitioning, and so forth. I have a sex therapy certification through the Sexual Health Alliance, and will be pursuing AASECT certification as well. I have attended trans/gender diverse vocal alteration training. Respark is an inclusive practice that aims to work with clients of all backgrounds and lifestyles.
