Maybe you are at sea amidst big change. Perhaps your relationship with sex and your body has become complicated by a limiting belief or a cultural message that is no longer serving you. In my own life, giving space to understand, without judgment, what is happening on an emotional level has given me space to grow with more acceptance and gentleness. I try and offer such a space to the people with whom I work and I believe it starts with a simple but often neglected truth: we are all deserving of care, from ourselves and from those we trust. I specialize in sex and relationship therapy.
