I’ve always been fascinated by people, how we learn, how we connect, why certain patterns follow us through life, and what helps us create meaningful change.

That curiosity has taken me through several very different chapters. I began my career as an educator and entrepreneur, pioneering online video-based learning that eventually reached more than 1.5 million students. Today, my work is centered on mental health, relationships, and sexuality through my M.S. in Counseling Psychology and Ph.D. in Clinical Sexology.

As a therapist, I work with individuals and couples navigating relationships, intimacy, sexuality, anxiety, trauma, life transitions, and the things that can be difficult to talk about openly. My approach is primarily psychodynamic and relational, while also drawing from EMDR, Imago Relationship Therapy, attachment theory, and sex therapy.

My doctoral research explored the relationship between attachment, loneliness, and sexual satisfaction among married entrepreneurs. While that research reflects my longtime interest in the emotional lives of entrepreneurs and high-achieving people, my clinical work is much broader. I’m interested in the patterns that shape all of our relationships: how we seek connection, protect ourselves, respond to vulnerability, and sometimes become stuck in ways we don’t fully understand.

Before entering clinical practice, I founded Digital-Tutors, Conclusion Wines in Napa, and co-founded Full Sail Capital. Those experiences gave me firsthand insight into stress, ambition, identity, responsibility, and the ways our professional lives can affect the people closest to us. They also taught me that what appears successful from the outside does not always reflect what someone is experiencing internally.

I continue to pursue advanced training in sexuality, trauma, relationships, kink-conscious care, gender-affirming care, and culturally responsive practice. My goal is to create a space where clients can speak openly about their experiences without unnecessary judgment or shame.

Outside the therapy room, I remain involved in speaking, education, and community service. I support Oklahoma nonprofits focused on women, children, and education and contribute to the broader professional community through organizations including the American Association of Sexuality Educators, Counselors, and Therapists.

Whether I’m sitting with a client, working with a couple, or speaking to a room of leaders, the goal is ultimately the same: To create a space where people can better understand themselves, connect more deeply with others, and build lives that feel meaningful both on the outside and within.
