Welcome to YSM!
If you have found your way here, there is a strong possibility that you have come to realize that something is feeling off - relationally, emotionally, or physically. You might not be clear about what it is but many people arrive here because something feels different. This is a space for clarity, support and thoughtful conversation and exploration, at your pace.
When your relationship, desire or sense of connection feels confusing, distant or overwhelming, it impacts your wellbeing and your choices and everyday decisions. We help adults and couples who are struggling with intimacy, changes in desire, shame, barriers in communication, and concerns around sexual satisfaction. You do not have to navigate this alone.
Counseling support is not a luxury, it is a place for understanding, discovery, relief, and change. Our services are designed to help move you forward with confidence and practical tools and skills.
You may be seeking support if you’re experiencing:
Changes in desire or arousal (low desire, mismatch, avoidance)
Emotional or physical barriers to intimacy (pain, trauma, medical)
Communication breakdown (difficulty expressing needs and preferences, ongoing strain or tension)
Shame, confusion, hurt, or faith-related conflict around sexuality.
You don’t need to know exactly what is wrong or whether your current situation aligns with these situations, but know that if any of this resonates with you, a conversation can help bring clarity and relief. Explore the possibilities in an initial consultation. This will be a session designed to clarify concerns, assess fit, and identify next steps. Many clients find this single session helpful to further determine their readiness to begin the counseling expereince.

OUR MISSION
My mission is to provide a safe, respectful, and affirming space where individuals and couples can explore intimacy, identity, pleasure and connection, with honesty and courage.
Through caring and informed support, we walk alongside individuals seeking clarity, healing, confidence and a deeper sense of relational freedom.
OUR VISION
I envision a time when conversations about sexuality, intimacy, and relationships are no longer ruled by guilt, shame, silence or fear, but instead is influenced by understanding, agency and self-compassion. A time when people feel empowered to explore ways to get to know themselves, speak for themselves and live from a place of truth rather than apology.
OUR VALUES
My work is grounded in these beliefs.
Respect -
Every story is unique and is worthy of dignity and care.
Presence -
Healing occurs best in spaces where people are truly seen and heard.
Integrity -
Care is provided with honesty, clarity, sensitivity and ethical responsibility.
Agency -
Clients are honored and respected as the experts of their own narratives.
Wholeness -
Sexuality, spirituality, emotion, and identity are deeply connected.
Courage -
Growth begins where safety gently encounters truth.
All these values are used to guide every conversation, every reflection, every exploration,
every session, and every space created within this practice.
