My practice is about the whole person. Holistic sex therapy is really understanding the biology, psychology, emotional, sexual, relational and social impacts on a person. Over 20 years of experience has lead me to explore many aspects of human beings and their sexual and relationship needs. Sex and Relationship therapy is a critical need to sustain a healthy relationship and a healthy sex life long term. I'm well known for getting straight to the point and take a solution focused and reality therapy approach to therapy.

Psychologist, MS, PhD
I offer a supportive and evidence-based approach to help clients navigate post-traumatic stress disorder.
My clinical expertise encompasses a wide range of behavioral and cognitive behavioral (CBT) therapies. I also specialize in evidence-based treatments for Post Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD), including Prolonged Exposure and Cognitive Processing Therapy.
I am a licensed Clinical Psychologist with extensive clinical and research training. I completed my doctoral studies in Clinical Psychology at the University of Washington, with a focus on diversity science. My internship at Harvard Medical School/Massachusetts General Hospital centered on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, and I pursued a postdoctoral fellowship in Global Psychiatry at Boston University Medical Center.
Currently, I am an Assistant Professor based in Seattle, Washington, at Boston University. My research explores the impact of migration on mental health, in collaboration with Universidad del Pacifico in Lima, Peru, and Boston Medical Center. This work informs my culturally sensitive approach to therapy.
If you're seeking a compassionate and knowledgeable therapist, I'm here to support you. Feel free to reach out to learn more or to schedule a session.
