I’m a therapist who’s all about helping you navigate the messy and unavoidable real stuff—like grief, trauma and hormonal health, and how it all ties into sex and sexuality. Whether it’s grieving the death of someone you love, coping with the transitions of your hormonal journey such as perimenopause or PCOS, I’m here to walk through it with you.
I believe healing doesn’t have to look perfect, and it’s not about fitting into anyone else’s timeline. It’s about creating a space where you can just be yourself, work through the tough stuff, and start reconnecting with what really matters.
I’m a white, queer, cisgender woman with Irish and Scottish roots. I’ve lived through my own share of challenges such as the sudden death of both parents, from navigating PCOS to figuring out parenthood while balancing all the feelings that come with it. Those experiences shape how I show up for you—real, down-to-earth, and always ready to meet you where you are.
Outside of therapy, you’ll often find me with my nose buried in a book. I’m an avid reader who loves diving into new ideas and stories that challenge the way I see the world. I also enjoy spending time with my little one, baking (sometimes successfully!), and soaking up the little moments that bring joy. Therapy with me is relaxed and down to earth but will also create real movement. I’ll meet you where you are and help you carve out a space to heal, grow, and reconnect with yourself at your own pace.

Coping with grief and trauma’s impact on sexuality: Losing someone or experiencing trauma can make it hard to feel connected to yourself or your partner, affecting your desire and intimacy.
Managing hormonal shifts (perimenopause, PCOS) and intimacy: Hormonal changes can mess with your mood, energy, and sex drive, making it challenging to stay connected or feel intimate.
Rebuilding sexuality after trauma: After trauma, it can be tough to feel comfortable or confident in your own sexuality. Rebuilding that connection takes time and care.
Balancing parenthood with emotional struggles: Being a parent while dealing with grief, trauma, or hormonal changes is tough. It can affect your ability to connect emotionally and physically with your partner.
Navigating body image concerns and sexual desire: Changes in your body, whether from hormones or life stages like pregnancy, can make you feel less confident, which impacts how you feel about sex.
Coping with emotional fluctuations and relationship challenges: Emotional ups and downs, whether from hormones or grief, can make it hard to maintain a healthy relationship and feel connected to your partner.
Healing at your own pace, without the pressure of perfection: Healing doesn’t need to be perfect or happen on someone else’s timeline. It’s about finding your own pace and giving yourself space to grow.
