Hi, I’m Claire - and I’m so happy you’re here.
I have always been passionate about helping people find the most fulfillment, contentment, and pleasure out of their lives. I also know that reaching out for support - especially from a therapist - can be incredibly daunting. I strive to create a welcoming, non-judgmental, affirming therapeutic space where you can feel comfortable speaking whatever is on your heart and mind - and I fully embrace utilizing humor and cursing to do so. Therapy isn’t always easy, but it should feel like a space where you are listened to, cared for, and respected; in my office, this is my standard.
Relationships (of all kinds!) have always been the source of my greatest pleasure and my greatest heartbreak, which led me to become a Sex Therapist. I believe that life is built on relationships and connection to others, and I want to help you navigate all of the complexities that life offers - because I have been (and continue to be) there, too.
I am available to meet virtually or in person for therapy sessions in San Francisco and Oakland. One of the most powerful connections we can form is with our therapists, and I am honored to be able to witness the totality of the courage, strength, pain, and complexity that each person brings into my office. If I sound like someone you'd like to work with, please feel free to reach out for your free 20 minute consultation.
“There are many paths to heaven, and sex is one of them.”
- Abraham Maslow
I approach my practice from a social justice, anti-racist lens. It is imperative for me to personally and professionally continue to investigate my own privilege, across all areas of my life.
