Sexual Addictions & Trauma affects everyone in the Family. Betrayal Trauma is a natural response to secrets & lying. It must be treated as primary for the relationship to heal. Many families experience Multiple Generations of Addictions, Abuse & Neglect. Family participation is strongly encouraged but not required. Couples & Families are often in crisis from a lack of support during discovery & disclosure of Sexual Addictions. Full Disclosure is encouraged in a safe, structured process with support. Accountability is the Cornerstone of Restoring Trust & Intimacy for couples & families recovering from Sexual Addictions. Recovery from Sexual Addictions involves restoration of Healthy Sexual Balance.

I’m a certified sex therapist through the American Association of Sexuality Educators, Counselors, and Therapists (AASECT) with extensive training in infidelity and kink.

We spend our lives trying to convince the world that we’re worthy. This makes it impossible to trust our intuition, honor our sexual desires, and show up fully in our relationships!

Making the decision to seek therapy takes courage and finding the right therapist can seem overwhelming. Yes, it's important to find someone with the appropriate credentials and experience, but it's also just as important that you feel comfortable with your therapist. If the match is right, you should feel heard, understood, and respected. I understand the importance of the relationship between a therapist and client, thus I seek to create a safe, trusting, and welcoming environment. I approach therapy from a place of acceptance and non-judgment because I truly want to learn about you, your concerns, and your goals.

I offer you my kindness, respect and years of my own dedicated self work. Listening, presence and experience is a big part of what I bring to our sessions.

We work to activate your highest or most authentic self. I also aim to heal the trauma in the body. I am Jungian based, using EMDR, mindfulness psychology, and somatic approaches, all to deepen your relationship to yourself.
