I specialize in pornography addiction, sex addiction, and families with children who have special needs (Autism, ADHD, and Developmental delays).
I believe each client is unique and possesses the strength and resources to improve and heal themselves. Sometimes we need help from others to accomplish our goals and make changes in our lives to become our most congruent self. Congruence is harmony of the body, mind, and soul.

My life experience has taught me no one should have to mentally suffer alone! If you're feeling off and your gut tells you there is a connection between your past (including trauma), lifestyle, social connection and your mental well-being, you've come to the right counselor. Whitney's approach to helping you meet your goals include emotional balance, reduced distressing symptoms, and discovering ways to build a strong support network.

I like clients that are unique, meaning I enjoy people's differences. I tend to create the treatment plan around the client and their needs rather than a cookie cutter type of treatment plan. I work with a wide range of clients from children and adolescents to couples therapy.

I am certified in Emotion-Focused Couples Therapy (EFT) and have advanced training in Sex Therapy and Internal Family Systems (IFS).
You got married full of hope—excited to build a life together. But now, it feels like that dream is slipping away. After years of trying, you feel lost. You’ve tried to communicate your needs, to be patient, believed it would get better—but no matter what, you both end up stuck in the same painful patterns. Maybe you feel like: “Nothing I do is ever good enough,” “They don’t appreciate me,” “I don't matter to my partner.” Or maybe there’s been a breaking point—a fight that cut too deep, a betrayal that left you in agony—and now you’re left wondering if you can ever rebuild. Something has to change, but can therapy actually help?

Sex Therapy
Who is sex therapy for?
Sex problems are common in relationships. Many people want a better sex life and want to feel loved and desired by their partner. It is difficult for couples to resolve sexual problems on their own because people often feel ashamed to talk about their sexual desires fearing they are not normal, when in fact a very broad range of preferences and behaviors are normal. A sex therapist can help clarify this and other matters.
Why do people need sex therapy?
Many people do not know how to talk about their erotic needs or their emotional needs, both of which are addressed in sex therapy. Couples often live with sexual difficulties for years before seeking help, and in that time, partners may experience so much disappointment and alienation that they may fear their problems mean they are incompatible. Once people experience disappointment, it is difficult to find resolution without help.
What happens in sex therapy?
People have many misconceptions about what takes place in sex therapy. First, it is a form of talk therapy in which partners discuss their sexual concerns; it does not involve touching or physical exploration of any kind. Sex therapy typically helps couples get comfortable talking to each other about sex so that, in the privacy of their home life, they can openly discuss their sexual desires and make decisions about what they want to do. Couples are typically assigned activities to do at home that build intimacy skills.
What kinds of problems do sex therapists treat?
Very often, partners differ in their degree of sexual desire and struggle over how often to have sex. Or they may have fights about porn use or have difficulty connecting sexually after one partner is unfaithful. Men may have problems with premature ejaculation. Women may find themselves struggling to become aroused or to achieve an orgasm. Sometimes partners feel like they have lost the sense of attraction to their partner. These are all common issues dealt with in sex therapy.
