Therapists in Cupertino, CA

Does it seem like your relationship is out of balance? All you and your partner do, it seems like, is fight? Where there was a feeling of peace and harmony, now just feels like a heavy fog of uncertainty. Is there an issue of infidelity and trust has eroded. At one point you and your partner could communicate, but now you struggle to get your message across. Come in and let's talk.

Providing individual therapy and couple's therapy, I address complex issues related to sex, sexuality, mismatched sexual desires, and sexual dysfunctions. My approach is deeply rooted in Emotionally Focused Therapy, a modality I've embraced to help couples break free from negative patterns and forge stronger, more intimate bonds. Through this method, I guide couples in acknowledging and addressing their emotional needs, ensuring both partners feel seen, heard, and deeply connected.

Unfortunately at times our lives may also include concerns with sexual functioning, infidelity, stressors in life (relationships, transitions, work, health, life direction or perhaps divorce). I can help. I bring 18 years of passion and experience into the work we do. I specialize in sex therapy, couples/relationships and life stress. Our work is fulfilled when; you have a healthy, fulfilling and rewarding sex life, your relationships are energizing and rewarding, or when you're living your life and not the life of your stressors. We will work to identify and then develop and create the life you want to live.

I specialize in sexual issues and persistent psychogenic pain. Both of these realms entail working through trauma, anxiety, grief, impulsivity, and depression. In sex therapy, I help clients grappling with issues around functioning, sexual shame, sexual trauma, impulsive behaviors, sex and porn "addictions," low and hyper-arousal issues - all from a sex-positive, kink/poly/bdsm-friendly stance. I also help couples navigate challenges in their intimate relationships. With chronic pain and discomfort, I help people change their relationship to the symptoms, which leads to drastic reduction and often elimination of symptoms.

You want to feel better, but life has shown up, and now you feel depressed, anxious, lonely, or angry. Has your self-esteem dropped? Are you struggling in your relationships? Do you: Berate yourself? Use drugs, alcohol, or other compulsive behaviors to cope with life? Do you have unresolved grief, trauma, or shame? Do you believe the lies your inner critic tells you? If YES, you've found the right place to transform your life. I provide a safe, compassionate, and nonjudgmental setting, using evidence-based theories that fit your situation. "Thank you Clint! I have finally taken control of my emotions and like myself today" -Kim.

I enjoy working with couples, families and individuals. Couples and families often struggle to see eye-to-eye on critical issues. I can help reduce conflict and blow-ups by restoring affection and admiration and teaching tools to help turn adversaries into allies. I have experience helping individuals going through significant life changes that may force them to think hard about who they are and what they want. These changes could involve leaving home, divorce, marriage, having a baby, starting a new job, quitting a job, finding a life partner, exploring sexuality or gender identity, etc.

Feeling stuck, immobilized and unable to change your life? What's holding you back from being your best self? Through a behavioral lens we work together to identify the behaviors and patterns that are holding you back from your goals and systematically relearn healthy patterns and coping mechanisms that will empower you to make the best decisions for yourself, your relationships or your family. I work from a person centered approach creating a safe space where we work together to help determine your needs and goals.

Our relationships, work, and health can be stressful or fulfilling. There are specific, practical, scientifically proven methods for increasing happiness, success, and well being for yourself and in your relationships and significantly reducing anger, anxiety, stress, job loss, relationship conflicts, and hypertension. I have 15 years of clinical experience in bringing together best practices that work! I teach Stanford University's courses in Wisdom, Emotional Intelligence, Career Development, and related Research regarding the best and most practical methods for effectively reducing anger, anxiety, and stress, and significantly improving personal and professional relationships, health & well being, and professional goals and success.

To me, a large part of therapy is about grieving and acceptance so that we can find peace within ourselves and others; I am particularly good at helping people get in touch with their feelings. I tend to work with the heavier side of therapy, that include drug/ alcohol /cannabis addiction, domestic violence, narcissism, borderline, sex/porn addiction, sex offense, sexual shame, couples in crisis, infidelity, poly relationships, court, and anger management. I tend to work really well with those who enjoy dark humor, who are avoidant by nature, and those who are seeking redemption from guilt/shame.

Since the pandemic there has been an increase in folks struggling with depression, sexuality issues, chronic illness, addiction, and having problems in relationships. I believe that therapy can help develop skills to face life's challenges. All individuals have the capacity to change and live a full life based on their core values. Therapy is a place to examine your principles and how you can use them as a compass to lead you to a life that more accurately reflects your values. Learning strong coping skills and an awareness of reactions vs responses can provide relief from chronic issues of depression and anxiety. Change happens!
