I’m a licensed clinical social worker and certified sex and couples therapist specializing in LGBTQ+ affirming care in New York City. Since 2022, I’ve been a therapist at the Institute for Human Identity, NYC’s leading mental health center dedicated exclusively to serving LGBTQ+ communities. I’ve also facilitated LGBTQ+ affirming mental health training within the NYC Health and Hospitals system, helping providers develop culturally responsive, identity-affirming care approaches.

As a certified sex therapist, I work with LGBTQ+ individuals and couples addressing sexual concerns, including desire discrepancies, sexual dysfunction, intimacy challenges, exploring kink and non-monogamy, and navigating sex and intimacy during gender transition. I’m sex-positive, kink-allied, and affirming of all relationship structures—monogamous, polyamorous, open relationships, and chosen family configurations.

I work with queer, gay, lesbian, bisexual, transgender, non-binary, and gender expansive adults navigating relationship challenges, sexual concerns, identity exploration, coming out, trauma recovery, minority stress, family acceptance issues, life transitions, anxiety, and depression. My approach integrates emotionally-focused therapy, psychodynamic therapy, and sex therapy techniques in a space that’s both warm and direct—where you can bring all of yourself without judgment and we tackle what’s really happening.

Whether you’re just beginning your coming out journey or have been living openly for decades, my practice welcomes you exactly as you are.
