First and foremost, I’m a fierce woman/wife/mother, and my pronouns are she/her/hers. I’m a lover to my core. I have a big family and a gaggle of animals. My soul is nourished through travel & wandering. The beach is my happy place, but the mountains have a piece of my heart. I’m always reading multiple books. I love strength training, yoga and trail walks with my loved ones. I’m a lifelong learner AND procrastinator.

Professionally, I’m a clinical social worker, psychotherapist and clinical sexologist with over 17 years of experience working in the human services field. I grew up just outside of Boston, Massachusetts, but don’t expect an accent! I was asked one too many times if I pahk the cah in Havahd yahd, and I taught myself to say my R’s. But…I do love that dirty water. I’m physically located in Virginia these days, but maintain my New England practice & visit often.

On to the boring, albeit important stuff, you may want to know about me. I have a bachelor’s degree in psychology, a master’s degree in clinical social work and a doctoral degree in clinical sexology—think the study of human sexuality meets psychosexual & relationship therapy. I’m a certified sex therapist through the American Association of Sexuality Educators, Counselors and Therapists (AASECT). I am licensed to practice therapy in Massachusetts, Maine, New Hampshire and Virginia. I offer consultation & coaching to couples and individuals all over the world. Regardless of location, all of my clients are seen virtually. While I miss being in the office, and sharing energy, don’t let remote sessions deter you. I am confident in my ability to connect as deeply with you virtually as we would in person.

I’m my authentic self with my clients—I show up and let myself be seen. I have boundaries and good ethics, but what you see is what you get. I’m transparent. I’ll challenge you. You’ll be seen and heard, but I won’t sugarcoat anything. I’m me and you are you; we can both show up fully.
