Sex Therapists in Edmonton, AB
Helping women have better sex is my passion.
Are you a woman with low desire that affects your relationship? Is sex painful, impossible, or simply not fun or pleasurable? Are you struggling to reach orgasm? Do you feel guilty that you never initiate sex, or are you exhausted by constantly turning down your partner? Do you wonder if your sex life could be better? Now more than ever, women are feeling overwhelmed by trying to figure out where to start in bridging the gap between their sexual experience and their partner's.

One of my passions involves working with couples in the area of sexuality, intimacy, infidelity, and the often traumatic world of divorce and relationship endings.
I believe we are all coping as best we can, and there are times in our lives when we can use extra support and guidance in seeking clarity and direction. My goal and wish for my clients is that out of pain and despair, comes peace, freedom, and ultimately joy. I feel truly honored to hear people's stories and my desire and motivation to work collaboratively and respectfully with people at their own pace is genuine. With my help as your therapist I will provide a safe healing environment and help you develop a healthier and more rewarding approach to life.

Hello! I see you’re scrolling through therapists and you’ve paused long enough to read my little blurb. I’m so glad you’re here! If you are struggling with your brain, your sexuality, or your relationships we can work through it together. Do you have concerns about your sexual desire: Too much? Too little? Too different? Are you grappling with your sexuality, coming out, or dealing with shame and stigma? Maybe things were great but something’s changed (what hasn’t these days?) and you need some help there. Your relationship could also be entering a new stage and you need some help navigating all those new challenges.

My specialized training includes Couples & Sex Therapy, Complex Trauma, Somatic Therapies, Child & Family Counselling, Grief & Loss, Multicultural Sensitivity, and Art Therapy.
Many of us struggle with self-doubt and inconfidence. It's like we’re carrying around an invisible weight that holds us back from feeling fulfilled in our relationships, work, and personal life. Core misbeliefs, often shaped by early life experiences, have a deep impact on our self-perception, choices, and behaviours. With more self-acceptance and by realizing your own truth, you can move past the walls that are impacting how you feel and think, and proceed with more confidence and compassion. It's a journey, but with each step you get closer to living a life that's true to who you really are.

I offer tailored approaches, incorporating the latest research in relationship and sex therapy.
I help individuals and couples navigate communication issues, intimacy concerns, sexual dysfunction, infidelity, trust issues, and trauma related to sexual abuse. If something feels off in your relationships or sex life, I'm here to provide support. Together, we'll navigate the challenges of stressors and delve into unmet expectations. If anxiety, low mood, self-criticism, or shame are barriers, or if you feel like you've been conforming to societal expectations rather than embracing who you are, our focus will be on rediscovering your authentic self.

Mental health, relationships, and sex can be challenging and intimidating topics. You may even feel embarrassed to discuss these issues at times. There might be feelings of shame, fear of judgment, conflicts with cultural or religious orientations, or uncertainty about your emotions. Life can be tough, and we may face unexpected challenges that make us feel hopeless or stuck in our relationships, careers, or life stages. I firmly believe that each of us has resilience and inner strength that can be developed to help us heal, grow, and develop personally.

Specializing in Communication and Relationship issues related to personality disorders, infidelity, divorce, recovery / sex, porn, anger and gaming addictions.
Perceptions...This is what we live out. The way we see the world and what we expect based on what we have experiences so far. Sometimes life does not ask you what you want, and it can get frustrating, and painful trying to live with, date or communicate with someone in your life that you can not understand. What has your history been? What did it teach you ? What do you want from your life? What would it take to get that? Sometimes an outside perspective can help you to see more clearly. Reaching out to someone with an objective view can help. I am trauma informed and specialize in Cluster B Personality Disorders.

I help women navigate mental health struggles related to pregnancy/postpartum, body image, disordered eating, self-esteem, stress/burnout, relationships, trauma, and sexuality.
It is so hard to be a woman in 2024! Our whole life, we received constant messages about being a woman and a mom. As a result, we internalize these unrealistic and patriarchal standards and can be left feeling like a failure when we inevitability do not measure up. No wonder so many women and moms feel stressed, burnt out, inadequate, and worthless! How do we cope? We beat ourselves up because we believe we are the problem. Many of us develop a strong inner-critic and unhelpful habits to cope with the pressure and the sensed failure. I promise you that you are not a failure - society has failed you.
