Despite being wired for connection, we often find ourselves "winging it" in relationships. Many of us didn't get the relationship blueprint we needed. This can often lead to a frustrating cycle filled with misunderstandings and loneliness. Sexual desire and fulfillment can easily suffer as a result. As an AASECT-Certified Sex Therapist and trained relationship therapist, I help clients gain the clarity and confidence needed to effectively navigate these obstacles. While I welcome all clients, I am particularly passionate about offering a safe and affirming space for those in the LGBTQIA+ community.
My couples and individuals want to see meaningful change in their lives, and they are ready to put in the work. With that, I often describe my style as "caringly confrontational." I provide a validating and nonjudgmental space while directly calling clients in if something is getting in the way of connection, intimacy, or sexual fulfillment.
Taking the first step toward therapy can feel intimidating. I wholeheartedly believe that you need to find a therapist you feel comfortable with for therapy to be helpful. With that, I encourage you to reach out today for a brief consultation to see if I could be a good fit for your therapy needs.
