"Balancing the emotional demands of my work with my own needs feels overwhelming."
"I struggle to separate my work identity from my personal relationships."
"I feel isolated because I don’t think anyone really understands my life."
Sound familiar?
I see you.
Are you feeling overwhelmed by the unique challenges of working in the adult industry? Maybe the emotional demands of your profession are starting to take a toll, or perhaps you've faced judgment and misunderstanding when trying to share your experiences with others. You might be struggling to balance your personal and professional life, feeling isolated from those who don't fully understand what you do. Perhaps you're experiencing stress, anxiety, or burnout, wondering if anyone can truly empathize with your situation.
Whatever it is that you're experiencing, you're beginning to notice the impact of this in every facet of your life:
Struggling to maintain personal relationships, as stigma or secrecy creates distance between you and your loved ones.
Feeling emotionally drained and exhausted, finding it hard to recharge after work.
Experiencing increased anxiety or stress, which affects your overall well-being and happiness.
You don't have to navigate these challenges alone. Therapy can provide a supportive space where you're understood and valued without judgment.

Therapy sessions are a safe and nonjudgmental space where you can talk openly about your experiences, challenges, and feelings without fear of stigma. We’ll work on the issues that feel most important to you—whether it’s navigating boundaries, processing stigma, dealing with emotional burnout, or building self-acceptance. Sessions are conversational, but I also use reflective exercises and strategies to help you better understand and navigate your emotions. My goal is to create a space where you feel respected, supported, and truly seen.

The length of therapy varies depending on your goals and what you want to address. Some people come for a few months to work through a specific challenge, while others stay longer to explore deeper patterns and grow over time. We’ll move at a pace that feels right for you, and you’ll always have control over how long we continue.

Therapy may be a good fit if you’re feeling isolated, overwhelmed, or unsure of how to balance your personal life with the demands of your work. If you’re seeking a space where you can talk openly without fear of being judged, or if you want support in managing the emotional toll of your work, this could be the right place for you. My lived experience and affirming approach ensure that you’ll be met with understanding and respect.

That’s absolutely okay. You might be struggling with personal relationships, the effects of trauma, or challenges that have little to nothing to do with your work. Therapy with me is an opportunity to explore all the important parts of your identity, beyond just your work in the adult industry.
We’ll create space for the complexities of who you are, honoring your experiences while ensuring your work identity doesn’t overshadow the rest of you. I won’t blame your challenges on your decision to be a sex worker, nor will I pathologize your choice to work in the adult industry. Instead, I’ll affirm your experiences and support you in whatever feels most important to your growth and healing. Therapy is about you as a whole person, not just one part of your life.

This initial conversation is a safe space to share what’s on your mind and decide if I’m the right fit to help you. From there, we can schedule your first session and begin your journey toward growth and healing.
