Sex shouldn’t feel this difficult. But now it's gotten to a point that you can't ignore it anymore—desire has faded, attraction has shifted, your body isn’t responding the way you want, or sex has become uncomfortable or painful. You may have tried to figure it out on your own—or even tried therapy—but nothing has really changed. You want thoughtful, experienced support from someone who understands the complexity of sex, intimacy, and relationships. Sexual concerns are rarely just about technique. They reflect deeper patterns in relationships, identity, and emotional safety.
As a Certified Sex Therapist, I help improve desire, attraction, intimacy, and sexual functioning. I work with individuals and couples navigating different levels of desire, sexual challenges, identity exploration, and relationship dynamics. I often work with clients who have tried other approaches but still feel stuck.
Sex and intimacy can be difficult to talk about, but avoiding the issue rarely makes it better. Over time, distance, resentment, avoidance, and self-doubt can grow. Therapy helps make sense of what’s happening and create real change. Together we work toward a sex life and relationship that feels more connected, authentic, and satisfying.

I use psychodynamic therapy to help individuals understand how past experiences shape their present and create lasting change. I integrate creative and somatic approaches to support a more connected, embodied sexuality. With couples, I use PACT and complementary approaches to help partners build secure, resilient relationships grounded in closeness, individuality, and sexual connection.
