Connecting to Self, Body, and Others
At the heart of my work is the belief that healing and growth begin with connection—first with ourselves, then with our bodies, and ultimately with others. Whether you’re rediscovering your inner voice, rebuilding trust in your body’s wisdom, or learning how to show up more authentically in your relationships, therapy offers a space to deepen that connection. My goal is to support you in cultivating self-awareness, embodied presence, and meaningful intimacy—so you can live with greater clarity, confidence, and emotional ease.

LGBTQ2+ Affirming Sex Therapy
Supporting clients in navigating desire, orientation, gender identity, and relational dynamics in a safe, non-judgmental space.

Helping individuals unpack and move through shame rooted in culture, religion, trauma, or internalized messages about sex and desire.

Desire & Arousal Difficulties
Addressing low or mismatched desire, arousal challenges, and performance anxiety—with sensitivity to both emotional and relational contexts.

Sexual Behaviour
Working with clients who feel their sexual behaviour is interfering with relationships, goals, or personal values—without pathologizing desire.

Kink, Fetish, and Non-Monogamy
Providing informed, affirming support to clients exploring kink/BDSM, open relationships, polyamory, or other non-traditional dynamics.

Coming Out & Later-Life Identity Exploration
Guiding individuals who are coming out at any stage of life or exploring aspects of their sexual or gender identity, often for the first time.

These areas reflect my commitment to sex-positive, trauma-aware, and identity-affirming care, particularly for adults navigating layered or stigmatized experiences around sex and self.

I provide specialized support for a range of concerns, including relationship challenges, communication issues, and personal development within the LGBTQ2+ community.

Sexual Health & Intimacy Concerns
Sexual challenges can show up in many ways—whether it's low or mismatched desire, difficulties with arousal or erections, trouble reaching orgasm, or anxiety about sexual performance. Some individuals experience pain during sex or struggle with out-of-control sexual behaviors that feel compulsive or distressing. Others seek guidance around kink, fetish, or BDSM exploration, or want support navigating non-monogamous or open relationship dynamics. Whatever your concern, you’re not alone. I offer a respectful, sex-positive, and trauma-informed space where we can explore your experiences without shame—focusing on your unique needs, goals, and values. Together, we’ll work to foster greater connection, confidence, and fulfillment in your intimate life.

Gender & Sexual Identity Support
Exploring your gender or sexual identity is a deeply personal journey, and it's one that can happen at any stage of life. Whether you're navigating LGBTQ2+ identity development, considering coming out, working through internalized shame or homophobia, or seeking support around gender exploration or transition, you're welcome here. I offer a nonjudgmental, affirming space where all identities are respected and celebrated. My approach is grounded in cultural humility, lived experience, and evidence-informed practices to support you in building a sense of authenticity, pride, and belonging.

Relational & Intimacy Concerns
Relationships can bring immense joy—but they can also face challenges. Whether you're experiencing communication breakdowns, emotional disconnection, or working to rebuild trust after infidelity, support is available. I work with individuals and couples to navigate the complexities of monogamy and consensual non-monogamy, helping you find clarity in your relationship structure and values. For those in long-term partnerships, I offer guidance in reigniting emotional and sexual intimacy, fostering deeper connection, and strengthening the foundation of your bond. Together, we’ll create space for vulnerability, honesty, and meaningful growth.

Healing from Trauma & Shame
Sexuality and self-worth are often shaped by our past—sometimes in painful or limiting ways. Whether you're navigating the lingering impacts of sexual trauma, struggling with religious or cultural sexual shame, carrying negative body image, or healing from deep attachment wounds, you are not alone. I offer a safe, nonjudgmental space where your experiences are honored with care and sensitivity. Grounded in trauma-informed and attachment-based approaches, our work together will focus on rebuilding safety in your body, reclaiming your voice, and moving toward a more empowered and compassionate relationship with yourself and others.

Life Transitions & Emotional Wellness
Life’s changes—whether expected or unexpected—can deeply impact our emotional and intimate well-being. You may be facing anxiety, depression, or grief that’s affecting your relationships or sexual expression. Perhaps you're adjusting to aging, illness, or shifting life roles. Or maybe you're exploring your sexual identity later in life and seeking support in making sense of what this means for you now. These transitions deserve care, curiosity, and compassion. I provide a supportive space to help you process, adapt, and reconnect with yourself and others in meaningful ways, no matter where you are on your journey.

ICBC-Related Therapy and Support
If you've been involved in a motor vehicle accident and have an ICBC claim, I'm here to help. I offer evidence-informed therapy specifically tailored to support your recovery journey. My goal is to help you navigate both the emotional and physical impacts of your accident, and I'm experienced in working with ICBC to ensure you get the care you need.

My work is client-centered, collaborative, affirming, and grounded in both clinical insight and lived experience. I offer an integrative approach to sex therapy that honors the complexity of identity, relationships, and desire. My practice is sex-positive, trauma-aware, and LGBTQ2+ affirming.

I draw from:

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) – to help clients build psychological flexibility and live in alignment with their values.

Emotionally Focused Therapy (EFT) – to support deeper emotional awareness and connection, especially in relationships.

Somatic & Attachment-Informed Practices – to explore how past experiences live in the body and shape present patterns.

Sex Therapy Principles – addressing issues such as desire, arousal, performance anxiety, sexual identity, kink, shame, and intimacy with openness and curiosity.
Sessions are tailored to the individual or couple, creating a space where people can explore challenges and possibilities without fear of judgment.

Yes, I offer virtual sessions to provide convenient and accessible support to clients anywhere.

Sessions with me are collaborative, non-judgmental, and grounded in warmth, curiosity, and respect. Whether you're seeking support around intimacy, identity, relationships, or sexual concerns, therapy will be tailored to meet your unique needs and pace.

What You Can Expect
You can expect a safe, affirming space where all sexual orientations, gender identities, relationship structures, and personal histories are welcomed without judgment. My approach is grounded in evidence-informed therapy and guided by your unique needs and values. Together, we’ll collaborate to clarify your goals—whether you’re looking to improve communication, heal from shame, increase sexual confidence, or deepen emotional and physical connection. Therapy will support you in understanding your inner experience while creating meaningful, sustainable change in your daily life and relationships.
