Whether you are an addict or partner , you do not have to continue to suffer.
Work with a Certified Sex Addiction Therapist (CSAT) to heal from sex and/or porn addiction. Sex/porn addiction is a clinical disorder which has ruined countless lives and families but responds to effective treatment. If you are struggling with sex/porn addiction, you know how debilitating it can be--shame, self-loathing, unable to stop your problematic behaviors and facing consequences. If you are the partner of a sex/porn addict, you may be wondering where to turn, bewildered and betrayed by the one you love.

Life Coaching and Counseling is offered to sustain a healthy lifestyle and relationship addressing dietary impact on the body, improving health physically and personally.
These are difficult times. Anxiety can have a life of its own. Providing better help through online Telehealth is a 15 year specialty in my 39 year career. So many "what ifs" are a reality in many lives. What does one do when anxiety, stress and panic hit? Change from what was normal to the "now normal" can bring reactivity and stress. I offer online therapy helping clients understand their lives and the roots of their personal anxiety & stress. I provide a safe place and skills that create “breathing room” to help people break free from the grips of their anxiety, frustration, and personal and relational stress.

For over 25 years, I have treated individuals and couples in the Tampa Bay area. My typical client is a professional person who is struggling with the stress of work, relationships, or parenting. A significant percentage of couples I work with are "dual career" couples , who have the added stress of career and family. I enjoy working with clients to improve communication skills and to reduce stress. My goal is for my clients to learn, or remember, how to enjoy a meaningful and fulfilling life, in spite of whatever obstacles life presents to them.

Couples Counseling Therapists

Does couples counseling work?

Research shows that couples counseling is effective; it can reduce relationship distress and improve emotional awareness, communication, empathy, intimacy, and overall relationship satisfaction. For example, emotionally focused therapy was found to be effective for about 75 percent of couples, and those benefits lasted at least two years.

When should a couple seek counseling?

Couples can benefit from counseling if they consistently struggle in their relationship. They may have lost the ability to communicate effectively, become entrenched in harmful patterns, begun to fight more than usual, broken the other’s trust, suffered from a mental or physical illness, or faced any number of other challenges. Many therapists offer free consultations, so if a couple isn’t sure whether therapy is necessary, asking directly can provide clarity.

How can I get my partner to go to couples therapy?

The decision to seek couples therapy is often driven by one partner, who then convinces the other to participate. When discussing the idea, the initiator should be direct and assertive. They can state the problems they see and explain how the relationship would benefit from therapy. In more serious cases, they can also explain how their relationship may suffer without making any changes or seeking professional help.

How does a couple prepare for couples counseling?

The anticipation of beginning couples counseling can be difficult—sometimes more difficult than the first session itself. Taking a few moments to reflect can allay those concerns: What are the current challenges? When and how did they begin? What do they want the relationship to look like in the future? Reflecting on these questions can help individuals or couples articulate their goals. Of course, the therapist will also ask questions and guide couples through the process.
