Psychotherapists - Licensed or Registered (USA)

I see clients in-person in Philadelphia and virtually within the state of Pennsylvania. I work with adolescents 14+ and adults of all ages and backgrounds. I am particularly interested in supporting folks in navigating their relationships with their bodies and sexualities during times of change, loss, and transition. As a queer, non-binary therapist, I enjoy working with clients of all genders, on all journeys. I am poly-friendly, kink-friendly, fat positive, and sex worker positive. I love working with couples, close friends, and non-traditional relationships. I also enjoy working with fellow artists.

I bring a warm, permission-giving, and playful energy to the therapy space. My approach is relational and attachment-based. I specialize in gender and sexuality, relationship issues, sexual challenges, and grief and loss. I practice with an intersectional lens and seek to understand my clients within the context of their identities and histories.

I currently do not take insurance, though I’m happy to provide a superbill for clients with out-of-network benefits seeking reimbursement. I provide therapy in English.

As a systemic therapist, I believe that people are connected to each other through a system of intertwining relationships. My role is to support you in building positive, secure relationships that will improve your well-being and interpersonal experiences. I work collaboratively with adult clients and their partners to address issues related to open relationships and non-monogamy, marital and premarital concerns, sexual dysfunctions and sexual issues related to trauma, illness and disability. I served as the President of the Oregon Counseling Association (ORCA) for the 2019-2020 term. I am also a Certified Sex Therapist through the American Association of Sexuality Educators, Counselors and Therapists (AASECT). Please consult my website for more details about my practice!

My practice focuses on working with tech folks, as well as members of often marginalized communities such as queer, polyamorous, or other spiritualities. I also have experience working with veterans and soldiers. I focus as a therapist on positive growth and change to help clients live their best lives. I understand that some people are looking to enhance their quality of life, become happier, or otherwise grow and change in new directions. Others struggle with difficulties, either at home, at work, or with friends and family. I’m not interested in pathologizing people, treating them as broken or sick.

I believe we have a natural urge towards wholeness and growth, even at our lowest points or when we’re the most troubled. I want to work with you to help find this inherent wholeness and foster it. This involves talking and processing in a shared space where people can feel deeply heard and understood with a profound sense of caring.

I focus on techniques and methods that draw from many practices in therapy. I use secular mindfulness practices and have trained as a mindfulness instructor. I am also trained in Internal Family Systems (IFS), Motivational Interviewing, and attachment repair, and within the growing psychedelic-assisted psychotherapy (PAP) movement for integration and support.

I work with adults of all ages specializing in working with couples and sex therapy issues. I am also EMDR & Prolonged Exposure trained and work with adults of all ages who wish to work through trauma life events. I have extensive experience and training working with those who have anxiety disorders.

I am a bilingual clinical sexologist and psychotherapist, practicing in English/Spanish. In my practice I work with children, adolescents, and adults, and offer individual, family and couples therapy. I specialize in sexual health and well being and am passionate about the power of connection between mind, body and spirit. I work with individuals and couples on understanding themselves as sexual beings, whether this relates to their individual journey or within their relationships. I do this through helping you explore your sexual identity, expression and behaviors, as they relate to your goals. I value being present in the moment, having self-compassion and acceptance for oneself before working on relationships with others. I practice through a holistic lens and a mindful perspective, teaching clients some of the same techniques that I myself practice regularly to cope with the complex challenges life often brings. In my clinical practice, I hold the belief that my client is the expert of their own life and I am here to help you identify your own personal goals and support you on your journey to achieve them. Common issues I work with include: Pregnancy, postpartum, infertility, painful intercourse, orgasm concerns, performance issues, loss of interest/libido, premarital/marital couples counseling, sexual behavior experienced as problematic/compulsive, sexual trauma, body image, and the interplay of religion/spirituality and sex. Additionally, I specialize in anxiety, stress management, parent/child issues, and PTSD within multicultural communities.

I only speak English and work with clients age 18 and up.

I am a sex positive non-judgmental, kink affirmative, poly friendly counselor. I have worked with many polyamorous clients individually and in relationship groups. One of my specialties is the treatment of sexual abuse or trauma. I am also trained in the treatment of male and female sexual issues as well as discrepant desire in relationships. I help relationship groups with emotion regulation and communication skills. I am trained in The Gottman Method, Integrative Behavioral Couples Therapy, CBT, EMDR, and Solution Focused Brief Therapy.

Typically for couples or relationship groups I will want to meet with everyone for the first session then each individual person in the relationship group (charged at the individual fee) and then bring all parties back together. In many cases one individual in the relationship group has sexual trauma or other sexual issues that may need individual treatment while the relationship group is simultaneously working on relationship issues. As mentioned above any individual treatment session would be charged the individual rate. I would love to work with you whether you are considering opening your relationship or you are established in polyamory.
