The erotic is a measure between the beginnings of our sense of self and the chaos of our strongest feelings.
- Audre Lorde
I’m a queer, nonbinary, femme, white/Latinx therapist.
I work with individuals and those in partnerships, as well as, alternative or non-traditional relationship models on a spectrum of challenges from anxiety, depression and trauma to communication and intimacy, desire and attraction as well as BDSM and kink, poly or ethical non-monogamous relationships.
ABOUT
My background includes serving as a crisis counselor in a local Brooklyn emergency department providing support and care to survivors of sexual assault and intimate partner violence, running group therapy for prisoners detained on Rikers Island, and working creatively as a human-centered product designer.
Currently I am working with Wise Therapy where I am apart of a beautiful community of therapists dedicated to helping individuals of all genders, sexualities, & relationship configurations build intimacy, communicate effectively, and live authentically.
WORK
I endeavor to hold space compassionately, empathically and to be present however clients need – non-judgmentally seeing and positively affirming their strengths and struggles. We will work together practically and utilize various therapeutic modalities ranging from relational, CBT, Narrative, Somatic, EMDR and Hypnotherapy to rewire neural pathways and draw upon inner resources to help you feel better and get to where you want to go.
We live in a world full of racism, transphobia, homophobia, fatphobia, and misogyny that is oppressive and isolating. The shame and rejection we experience can become ever-present in our minds. I see sex and pleasure as empowering ways to heal. My hope is to bring you closer to fully loving and radically accepting yourself.
