I work with current and former sex workers, people in addiction recovery, and those who have experienced trauma.

I know the constant tightrope between who you are and who you have to be to get through the day. The tug between wanting closeness and not trusting it. The times you’ve given too much or shut down completely.

I built this practice because I know sex workers and those in recovery are some of the most resourceful, powerful, and underestimated people out there — and I refuse to let stigma keep you small. Here, you can exhale, be real, and lay it all on the table. I can handle it.

Together, we untangle shame, emotional shutdown, and boundary struggles so you can feel more at home in your body, reconnect with your emotions, and stop abandoning yourself. My therapy approach is grounded in attachment and nervous system regulation, in order to build real self-trust, presence, and personal power.
