I work with adults navigating profound transitions, including love, sex, partnership, parenting, divorce, trauma, dating, custody changes, relocation, and rebuilding after loss or rupture.
I work individually & relationally, specializing in ENM, polyamory, and monogamy under strain during identity or relational change. Individually, we build self-trust, boundaries, and values clarity. Relationally, we explore attachment, communication, and repair. I work with the understanding that emotions and behaviour are complex and life is rarely linear.

You don’t want to have to worry every time you have sex (“Will I get hard this time?” or “Will I last long enough?” or “Will I even be able to orgasm?”).
You’ve been under-performing in the bedroom and the doctors aren’t able to help. You find yourself worrying about erections, or how long it will take you to ejaculate. That worry started in the bedroom, but now it’s always there. Maybe you find yourself creating distance from your partner because you’re worried it will happen again. You don’t want to disappoint your partner, but how could they not take it personally? Maybe you avoid dating all together, wondering “who is going to want to be with someone who can’t perform in the bedroom?” You feel like less of a man. You feel like a sexual failure. You think “I must be the only one"

I also specialize and have had training in: couples therapy; sex therapy; self esteem & self worth; body image & disordered food relationships; grief, death, & loss; and spiritual/existential concerns.

Sex Therapy
Who is sex therapy for?
Sex problems are common in relationships. Many people want a better sex life and want to feel loved and desired by their partner. It is difficult for couples to resolve sexual problems on their own because people often feel ashamed to talk about their sexual desires fearing they are not normal, when in fact a very broad range of preferences and behaviors are normal. A sex therapist can help clarify this and other matters.
Why do people need sex therapy?
Many people do not know how to talk about their erotic needs or their emotional needs, both of which are addressed in sex therapy. Couples often live with sexual difficulties for years before seeking help, and in that time, partners may experience so much disappointment and alienation that they may fear their problems mean they are incompatible. Once people experience disappointment, it is difficult to find resolution without help.
What happens in sex therapy?
People have many misconceptions about what takes place in sex therapy. First, it is a form of talk therapy in which partners discuss their sexual concerns; it does not involve touching or physical exploration of any kind. Sex therapy typically helps couples get comfortable talking to each other about sex so that, in the privacy of their home life, they can openly discuss their sexual desires and make decisions about what they want to do. Couples are typically assigned activities to do at home that build intimacy skills.
What kinds of problems do sex therapists treat?
Very often, partners differ in their degree of sexual desire and struggle over how often to have sex. Or they may have fights about porn use or have difficulty connecting sexually after one partner is unfaithful. Men may have problems with premature ejaculation. Women may find themselves struggling to become aroused or to achieve an orgasm. Sometimes partners feel like they have lost the sense of attraction to their partner. These are all common issues dealt with in sex therapy.
