I’m Dr. P—Licensed Mental Health Counselor in Florida with a PhD in Clinical Sexology. I specialize in sex therapy, substance use, and the mental health struggles people are often too afraid to say out loud. I work with adults of all genders and orientations—queer, kinky, straight, exploring, in recovery, or somewhere in between—who are trying to untangle what it means to feel connected, grounded, and whole.
My clients come to me when they’re tired of filtering themselves, tired of pretending, and ready to talk about the parts of their lives that feel messy, complicated, or too “out there” for traditional therapy. Whether it’s navigating desire, rebuilding trust in relationships, unpacking shame, or figuring out who you are outside of survival mode—I meet you where you are, without judgment.
My approach is honest, collaborative, and tailored to you. I combine evidence-based tools with real, human conversation. We’ll focus on what works—not what looks good on paper. No performative empathy, no clinical distance—just a space where you can be messy, curious, and fully yourself.
If you’re ready for therapy that goes deeper than symptom checklists, I’m here when you’re ready to start.

Online counseling, also known as teletherapy, is a method of delivering mental health services through digital means such as video conferencing, phone calls, or messaging platforms. It can be an ideal option for individuals who have difficulty accessing traditional therapy due to geographical distance, time constraints, or personal preferences like privacy and comfort. Many people find it easier to open up from the familiarity of their own space.
Teletherapy has been found to be highly effective, with studies showing that it can produce similar outcomes to in-person therapy, particularly for issues like anxiety, depression, and PTSD. The flexibility and accessibility it offers make it a valuable alternative to conventional therapy settings.
