A judgement-free Space for Your Not-So-Finest Moments

This work means witnessing people navigating the messy middle of relationships: the miscommunications, the arguments that go in circles, the deep ache of not feeling seen. These aren’t signs that something is wrong with you—they’re invitations. Those “not so fine moments” are where the most powerful growth happens. Sammy tends to those experiences with grace and offers the kind of honest accountability that helps you find your way forward.

My Path to Therapy

I became a therapist after walking through the fire of my own partner’s cancer diagnosis in his twenties. Facing illness, intimacy, and grief at such a young age showed me how few therapists were trained to hold space for bodies, sex, and relationships in all their complexity. I knew I wanted to change that.

Before stepping into therapy work, I spent 8 years as a sex and kink educator, specializing in porn literacy and child grooming awareness and prevention. I carry that same dedication to safety, sexual empowerment, and real-talk into the therapy room.

The moment you pause mid-sentence and realize you're not repeating the same cycle? The day you show up glowing with pride about how you handled something differently? Those are the moments that light me up.
