Are you looking for a Certified Sex Therapist? Someone to truly understands what you are going through? I can help! Finding the right fit for a therapist is so important. You want someone you can trust, open up to about things you would never tell family or friends, and someone who can offer you some useful strategies and feedback. I am an interactive therapist. This means, I will not just sit there and have you talk for 50 minutes without any interactive feedback. Being an interactive therapist, we are having a conversation so there is give and take. We will work together to find strategies and solutions that are practical.
Talking to a total stranger can seem intimidating. Pile that on with needing to talk about a sexual issue. Your difficulties, desires, wants, needs, etc can all be explored without judgement. I try to make it easy to talk about these things You are in the driver’s seat here. After all, this is your process.
I understand the complexities of things like balancing a family, kids, owning/running a business, managing employees all while trying to create a life that brings you happiness and fulfillment. Life is hard. Sometimes it sucks and sometimes it is freaking awesome. Our work together is to make it suck less and help you find your spark again.
