Has sex started to feel like a chore? Maybe you've tried discussing it and have been to individual or couples counseling but still feel stuck. I specialize in helping people in committed relationships to get unstuck and get back to feeling close and passionate again. Along the way we build some amazing sexual communication skills and get a clear sense of turn-ons and turn-offs so you can initiate like a pro. Whether you have low libido, sex addiction, erectile dysfunction or trauma around sexuality, I can offer support and guidance.
I offer a down-to-earth approach and my gift is helping people let go of shame and stigma around sexuality. I love working with ENM, LGBT+, kinky and sex worker clients and vanilla people too! Check out my photo gallery for testimonials and an infographic of my method. I also have an intern offering low fee sessions for individuals and relationship partner.
Reach out for a free 30-min Intimacy Breakthrough Call to learn more. We'll go over your struggles and goals as well as my recommendations. If it's a fit, I'll share about my coaching services. I can customize a program to what works for you: a full-day intensive, concierge level coaching or a DIY roadmap. Please note: I do not take any insurance plans.
