Sex Therapists in Boston, MA
I teach classes on sexuality, dreams, and childhood.
I understand that symptoms and problems have meaning and I help patients to come to understand this meaning. Therapy loosens the forces that bind people to ways of living that have become unsatisfying. I seek to help patients understand themselves in a deep and complex way so that life becomes more free, more enriched, and more meaningful.

Other specialties: complex trauma, loss & grief, anxiety, depression, relationships, sex/ sexuality.
I proudly identify as an LGBTQ therapist who believes in a therapeutic relationship that is stepped in active-listening, empathy, and unconditional positive regard. In turn, this allows for clients to feel safe and secure when we engage in a therapeutic relationship. Therapy is about being yourself without the judgment of the world; and it is a discovery process that gives you the opportunity to visualize possibilities in life. My attention is drawn to connecting with clients, being collaborative and interactive, and learning how to help clients become unstuck in life.

I come from a sex-positive, trauma-informed, and pleasure-focused perspective.
I specialize in Expressive Arts Therapy, with an emphasis on dance and movement, and value creativity and spontaneity as part of mental health treatment. I also utilize skills from cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) and dialectical behavior therapy (DBT).

I also offer support in exploring depression, anxiety, sexuality, and life transitions, particularly through the relationship you have with yourself and others.
I've been in therapy for many years, so I appreciate what it means for you to be here. If you are looking for a non-judgmental space to explore barriers which prevent you from achieving an authentic version of happiness, calmness, and emotional safety, I’d love to work with you. Life can feel overwhelming, heavy, and unpredictable, which creates a cycle of worry and an inability to change patterns of thoughts and behaviors. Therapy is the space to make those shifts, at a pace that is comfortable for you. True change requires honesty, curiosity, accountability, and compassion for yourself, which are all integral to my approach.

I can help with relationship/intimacy issues such as codependency, premarital/marital issues, love/ sex addiction, sexual issues, love avoidance, emotional reactivity, trauma, self-esteem, high conflict, emotional abuse, and more.
I approach therapy with the belief that the health of our relationships strongly impacts our sense of well-being. Through the creation of a safe and empathetic therapy environment, I help individuals & couples let go of negative patterns and replace them with healthier ways of relating. Many of us have experienced childhood traumas or difficulties in past relationships. These experiences can create harmful patterns that get in the way of our ability to form meaningful relationships. Once you overcome these barriers to connection you can experience more fulfilling, secure, and authentic relationships, and lives.

My patients are generally competent, loving people who are struggling with painful issues related to relationships, sexuality, life changes, work and other stressful situations.
As a therapist I adjust my style and approach to each individual I work with. I draw on my expertise and experience to determine how to best help each person develop the tools, confidence, and self understanding that are often required to break old patterns of behavior and achieve higher levels of emotional health and life satisfaction.

Just as often that lack of connection is to themselves; fear, trauma, sexuality or shame.
Here are the specs: I am a client centered therapist and coach who utilizes a sex positive approach pulling from many tools from evidence based approaches like Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Emotionally Focused Therapy (based in Attachment theory), Dialectical Behavior Therapy, and Mindfulness.

I work with relationships across the life span, including going back to childhood experiences and how relationships have shaped you, love relationships, sex, parenting, empty nesting, identity, purpose, and the impact of life and losses along the way.
Together, we can map out your relationship patterns and identify your strengths, needs, and longings. From there, we can explore any hurts, adaptations, protections, roles, patterns, unmet needs, and shadow drivers that underpin your ways of relating to both yourself and others. Everything you do makes sense in the context of your unique life.

My practice is sex-positive and kink- and poly-friendly.
My therapeutic style integrates several approaches. I help my clients understand how their past and unconscious experiences shape who they are and I also help them develop tools for coping with problems. All of this occurs in a context that values the healing potential of relationships.

I offer a sex-positive, non-judgmental, and non-pathologizing coaching approach that will guide you to identify and move past your sexual/relationship issues and empower you to attain your authentic sexuality/relationship goals.

For issues around sexuality in a relationship, I find the Sensate Focus method to be very helpful.
I have been a psychotherapist for more than 35 years. I provide both individual and couples therapy. I use evidence-based methods to work with my clients on achieving their desired goals. With couples, I commonly see people wanting assistance with conflict resolution skills, communication skills, and help with diminished physical intimacy. For individuals, I have found that past histories of trauma or emotional invalidation are fairly common regardless of the particular struggle bringing someone to see me.

I work with children/adults who struggle with depression, anxiety, substance use, difficulties with communication (families or couples), and those who wish to understand their identity especially surrounding sexuality and gender.

My approach to therapy is queer competent, gender affirming, sex positive, kink affirming, and poly affirming.
I believe that each and every one of us is the expert of our own lives, but sometimes we feel overwhelmed and need guidance. This gets more challenging if you're a queer person in the south, but working with an affirming, competent therapist can make a big difference. I help transgender folx and other members of the LGBTQ+ community explore their identity, develop self-esteem, and improve their relationships.
