Is there a disconnect between you & your partner(s) when it comes to your sex life? If so, please don't wait to get support! Because we're taught so little about sex, many of us shy away from the topic, but that just worsens things. Sex can start to feel like a chore and lack of sex can become the elephant in the room. It can even cause the end of your relationship if left unaddressed long enough. Before I became a sex therapist, I also found myself in this situation in my long-term relationship. But after 10,000 hours of coaching and counseling clients and becoming an AASECT certified sex therapist, I am confident I can help!

Specializing in anxiety, adjustment issues, trauma, I am concerned with issues around relationships, identity, life transitions, parenting and grief.
We're more anxious right now than ever, trying to navigate everything that is happening in our lives and our world. It's easy to get out of balance, especially during this difficult time. It's hard to navigate our own lives and now we have other worries, many that feel beyond our control. Drawing on my experience and training in existential philosophy and contemporary psychodynamic therapy...a compassionate rigorous insistence on taking responsibility for oneself, we’ll try to make sense of all this, navigating habits and patterns you keep falling back on; finding connections to the things you feel are most important in your life.

And interestingly, I have found that these skills are just as effective in cleaning up our relationships with ourselves - the crossover into individual coaching is powerful and productive.
"Here we go again."...having the same fight we've had a hundred times before. The subject may change, but the flavor... the feeling... is always the same. Our downward spiral. Our bad deal. But if we could learn to break the pattern... to interrupt the downward spiral... well that would be something, wouldn't it. So that's where we'll start. This is not a "traditional couples therapy" approach. It's skills-based, educational and results-oriented. When the roof is broken, you find a hammer and nails and you fix it. When your relationship is broken, this is your hammer and nails.

Many of us face daily challenges in work, family, school and careers. When thinking about engaging in counseling, it is always good to think about the goals one wants to achieve along with the purpose of being in counseling.

My approach combines process with structure--thus it embodies both in -depth psychotherapy and goal-focused life coaching.
My typical client is someone who is looking for an alternative, holistic approach to modern- day problems. These problems may include conditions such as anxiety, depression, past trauma, or relationship issues. Also, many people seek therapy and support to transition through major life changes and losses. In all cases, people are seeking to become a better, or even best, version of themselves. Many wish to build optimal daily habits in order to achieve this. Thus they appreciate my combined approach of counseling and life -coaching, as well as the multiple and varied resources ,"tools", and strategies used for concrete change.

Life Coaching Therapists

What can I expect from life coaching?

Clients and coaches will typically start by identifying the problem area(s) that the client hopes to address—then, the coach will help the client brainstorm potential solutions and explore concrete techniques to help the client attain their goals. Coaching is typically short-term and focused on finding solutions in the here and now, rather than exploring a client’s past. In addition to strategies aimed at the client’s specific concerns, coaches may encourage general stress management techniques such as meditation.

Can a life coach help treat anxiety?

Because the majority of life coaches are not licensed clinicians, they are not qualified to diagnose or treat anxiety. Anyone struggling with anxiety or another mental health condition should seek help from a licensed mental health practitioner. However, some coaching clients who struggle with subclinical anxiety report that working with their coach on other problems—such as career dissatisfaction or unhealthy habits—has a positive effect on their anxiety.

Can life coaching be done online?

Yes. While life coaching often happens in person, many coaches conduct sessions over the phone or via online platforms such as Zoom or Skype. Because life coaches are not subject to local licensing regulations in the same way that therapists are, they are able to see clients who live in other locations.

How long does life coaching last?

Life coaching tends to be a shorter-term process than therapy, though it does not always unfold over a specific period of time and is instead based on the coach’s or the client’s preferences. Coaching often takes place over three to 12 months but may be shorter or longer if necessary.
