I am a therapist, retreat facilitator, and educator. I firmly believe that each of us holds all of the answers that we need within us, I will companion you on your journey to remembering your true, authentic self.
My areas of specialty include sex therapy, integration of expanded states, spiritual exploration, somatic experiencing, communication skills enhancement, and men's emotional growth work. In addition, I am knowledgeable and affirming of LGBTQ+ and kink/BDSM/ENM identities.
A session with me can include education, meditation, dream work, mindfulness, inner child and parts work, and insight based and solution focused therapies, and always includes common sense feedback. However, I tailor my approach based on the specific goals and strengths of the client, and I aim to always create a safe space for you to fully explore and express what lives in your heart and soul.
I received my Master of Social Work (MSW) and PhD in Social Work from Rutgers University, and am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) in New Jersey and New York. I have received advanced training in sex therapy, trauma informed therapy, somatic experiencing, LGBTQ+ concerns, and spiritual direction. I work with adult clients seeking individual therapy.
I value the role of education both in my therapy sessions and to the community at large. I have taught several graduate level courses at Rutgers University on topics related to grief and loss, chronic illness and disability, LBGTQ matters, and human behavior in the social environment. I have provided extensive workshops and training on mid-life issues, ethical non-monogamy and polyamory, and BDSM/kink related topics. I am happy to provide education and training to community and professional organizations, as well as collaboration on research for publication and presentation.
