Bio

Hey there! I know how tough it can be to open up in therapy—sharing the tender or confusing parts of ourselves takes courage. Most of us want to feel seen and met with warmth, and that’s exactly what I aim to offer. I show up with compassion, authenticity, humour, and curiosity to create a space where all parts of you are welcome!

I’m a registered clinical counsellor and certified sexologist, and I work with folks navigating issues related to sex, relationships, identity, and trauma.

As a queer non-binary person of color, my work is rooted in intersectional feminist ideologies and practices. My approach is trauma-informed, sex-positive, and anti-oppressive—meaning this is a space where you can talk about the hard stuff without fear of judgment. I often work with people from the LGBTQIA2S+, BIPOC, and sex work communities.

Here are some issues I often support individuals and couples with:

  • Changes in sexual desire, exploring sexuality, kinks, or fetishes

  • Painful sex (dyspareunia, vaginismus, endometriosis, etc.), erectile difficulties or trouble reaching orgasm.

  • Sexual shame, out of control/compulsive sexual behaviours, anxiety, emotional regulation, and low self-esteem

  • Neurodivergent sexual experiences, and sex work affirming care

  • Changes in sexual experiences from transitions such as pregnancy/post-partum, gender-affirming surgery, or parenthood

  • Exploring gender, racial, or sexual identity, coming out, or queer sex

  • Relationship dynamics — including non-monogamy, intimacy challenges, infidelity, communication difficulties, or conflict

  • Complex trauma, PTSD, or adverse childhood experiences

In our work together, we’ll move at your pace—making space for your struggles, while building toward healing, confidence, and connection.

When I’m not in session, you can usually find me rolling at Jiu-Jitsu, out in nature, cooking something chaotic, vibing to R&B, or spending time with my friends!

I also want to acknowledge that I live and work on the unceded lands of the xʷməθkwəy̓əm (Musqueam), Skwxwú7mesh (Squamish), and səl̓ílwətaɬ (Tsleil-Waututh) Nations.
