My Ethos and Guiding Principles

Sexistentialism

Sexistentialism is the cornerstone of my approach, placing the sexual self at the center of human development. This framework challenges traditional models that treat sexuality as secondary, instead emphasizing its role in shaping identity, relationships, and personal growth.

SEXistentialism prioritizes helping people better understand their relationship to their sexual selves within their unique cultural contexts. It also embraces the idea of finding deep meaning and connection throughout life, recognizing that sexuality and intimacy are profound expressions of the human experience. By exploring these aspects, we open pathways to greater authenticity, fulfillment, and purpose.

Through SEXistentialism, I help clients reclaim the hidden or forgotten aspects of their sexual selves, challenging societal norms and fostering holistic development. This lens informs every aspect of my work, from fostering sex positivity to providing affirming care for all genders and supporting those in kink/BDSM communities.

Sex Positivity and Deshamifying

I believe that all consensual expressions of sexuality are valid and deserve to be explored without shame. Central to sex positivity is the process of deshamifying—dismantling the shame and stigma often associated with sexuality, identity, and intimacy. Through deshamifying, I help clients create space to embrace their authentic selves, explore their desires, and connect with their sexual identity in a way that feels empowering and aligned with their values.

Together, we’ll challenge societal stigmas and foster a relationship with your sexual self that is free of judgment and deeply affirming. This work lays the foundation for greater intimacy, pleasure, and self-awareness in all areas of life.

Gender-Affirming Care

I am committed to creating a space that celebrates and affirms all gender identities and expressions. Whether you’re exploring your gender, seeking validation in your identity, or navigating relational dynamics, I work with you to honor and support your unique journey. My goal is to provide compassionate care that helps you feel seen, understood, and empowered to live authentically.

Kink and BDSM

Kink and BDSM are important and valid aspects of intimacy and connection. I provide a judgment-free space to explore these practices, ensuring they are safe, consensual, and aligned with your values. Whether you’re curious, experienced, or processing experiences within the kink/BDSM community, I’m here to support your growth and understanding as you embrace this part of your identity.

Authenticity: Bringing My Whole Self to Our Work

Authenticity is at the heart of everything I do. In our sessions, I bring my whole self—my training, my personal experiences, and my genuine presence—to create a space where you feel seen, heard, and supported. I believe that true growth and connection happen when we show up fully and honestly, embracing our unique complexities without fear of judgment.

Humor and navigating difficult emotions are also central to my work. I believe that laughter can be as healing as tears, and together we’ll explore the full range of your experiences, holding space for both joy and pain. My goal is to help you approach challenges with curiosity and self-compassion, even when the emotions feel heavy.

Additionally, I offer a unique perspective by providing feedback on what it’s like to be "in" relationship with you. This real-time reflection can offer profound insights into your relational patterns and help you practice new ways of connecting in a safe and supportive environment. Together, we’ll create a partnership where you feel safe to bring your whole self into the room, just as I do.
