Has sex become stressful, distant, painful, or difficult to talk about? You may be dealing with mismatched desire, low desire, erectile or orgasm concerns, sexual anxiety, shame, the effects of trauma, or a loss of emotional and physical connection. I help individuals and couples understand what is happening, reduce pressure and avoidance, and build a more satisfying relationship with sexuality and one another. I also work with clients navigating compulsive sexual behavior, infidelity, relationship conflict, identity concerns, anxiety, and life transitions.
As an AASECT-Certified Sex Therapist and LMFT, I provide trauma-informed, attachment-based online therapy. Our work may include understanding emotional and relationship patterns, improving sexual communication, rebuilding trust, and developing practical ways to increase comfort, connection, and choice. Your goals and values guide the process.
Talking about sex can feel vulnerable, but you do not need to have the right words or know exactly what is wrong before reaching out. I welcome LGBTQIA+, neurodivergent, kink/BDSM, and consensually non-monogamous clients. I offer online therapy in Maine, California, Colorado, and Florida. Contact me to schedule a free consultation.
