When I decided I wanted to be a Mental Health Therapist, I knew I wanted one of my areas of specialty to be sexuality. This was for multiple reasons. I’ve always found sexuality to be an interesting part of the human experience. Often times it feels like we make it unnecessarily complicated (As we humans tend to do with everything). It’s a topic that society says is taboo, but then we’re immersed with it daily. 

With over 18 years of experience as a therapist, I’ve had the opportunity to work through my own complicatedness of sexuality. This includes struggling with the concept of being a “good girl”, sexuality and the church, having curves at a young age, “managing my sexiness”, etc etc. I would say starting the journey to specialize in sexuality was a game change in how I view and appreciated myself.

I quickly realized (and often heard) how some many of us have similar stories and I enjoy assisting others in navigating through their own journeys of sexuality. This is why I’m super excited about you joining me on this retreat. I know firsthand, how that can look and want to assist in the process. I’m looking forward to seeing the changes in you throughout the experience, because you won’t be the same.
