Helping people get honest about porn — and find real ground.
I created Honestly Grounded because I've seen firsthand how much shame keeps people from getting help — and how powerful recovery becomes when judgment is removed from the equation. My clinical work is grounded in evidence-based approaches: CBT, ACT, EMDR, and trauma-informed care.
My clinical approach
My focus is on compulsive sexual behavior, pornography addiction, and the shame cycles that keep people stuck. My work integrates Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), EMDR, and trauma-informed care — meaning I don't just treat the behavior, I work to understand what's underneath it.
I built Honestly Grounded because I believe access to quality psychoeducation shouldn't require a therapy waitlist. But for those ready to go deeper, individual therapy offers something the modules can't: a real relationship, real-time support, and the kind of nuanced, personalized work that produces lasting change.
CBT
Identifying the thoughts and patterns that drive behavior and replacing them with more workable ones.
ACT
Learning to observe urges without acting on them — and building a life aligned with your values.
Trauma-informed
Understanding the role past experiences play in present behavior, without re-traumatizing.
Relational
Addressing the impact on relationships and intimacy — and rebuilding what the behavior has cost.
EMDR
Processing traumatic memories that fuel compulsive behavior — reducing their emotional charge so they lose their grip.
Where I'm licensed to practice
I currently offer individual telehealth therapy to clients in the following states. If you're unsure whether I can work with you, include your state in the form below and I'll confirm.
What working together looks like
Individual sessions are 50 minutes via telehealth. I typically meet with clients weekly, especially in the early stages of recovery. We'll move at a pace that works for you — I don't believe in rushing the process, and I don't believe in dragging it out either.
If you've already worked through the Honestly Grounded modules, we can build directly on that foundation in our sessions. If you're starting fresh, that's completely fine too — there's no prerequisite for reaching out.
Book a therapy session
If you're ready to work together, you can book directly through ZocDoc or Headway. Both platforms handle insurance verification, billing, and scheduling.
