los angeles and new york city

sex, relationships, & mental health
as a sexologist and psychotherapist specializing in work with ABDL communities, my work is grounded in a commitment to mental health supports for individuals, couples, groups, and families who are navigating the journey to realization of the core part of self that involves relations with others.
my psychotherapy practice in California and New York emphasizes creating a safe and non-judgmental space where clients can explore their identities, relational needs, and erotic desires.
this approach is deeply rooted in principles of shared lived experience, empathy, respect, and confidentiality, ensuring that every client feels valued and understood. by addressing the psychological and emotional dimensions of erotic orientation, identity, and relationships, i help clients integrate these aspects into their lives in healthy and fulfilling ways
in my work, a primary goal is to support and celebrate all of what makes you uniquely you, so that, together, we can forge ahead in this incredible journey in supporting you as you realize your wildest erotic fantasies with the goals of self-actualization in everyday life.
my approach with individuals is principally psychodynamic, and tailored to each client's needs, ultimately fostering self-realization, positive self-regard, and love.
through our sessions, i assist clients in understanding and accepting erotic identities, and apply contemporary evidence-based practices to support you as you confront shame or stigma and build courage, confidence, and self-awareness.
with couples, the goal is to ensure that both parties experience mutual respect, care, and trust, while they balance any needs for erotic power exchange and caregiving dynamics.
