“I believe in the transformative power of pleasure, and view sex, intimacy, & joy as integral to our individual and collective wellness. I also view the power of our intuitions and our bodies as impactful lenses for awareness and self-care. Combining EFT, IFS, somatic, & mindfulness approaches, I look forward to collaborating with you on your therapy journey.”
