Are you feeling stuck in a painful cycle with someone you love? You may be trying everything you can to reconnect—only to end up feeling more misunderstood, more distant.
It’s confusing when your best intentions seem to push your partner further away.
The truth is, the people who matter most can also hurt us the most—not because they mean harm, but because they matter. When the bond feels fragile, even small moments can carry so much weight.
Maybe you’ve tried fighting for connection, but it ends in blowups. Or you’ve tucked your pain away, only to feel even more alone.
It’s exhausting—and it can feel hopeless.

I work with individual and couples, including same- sex couples.
I believe people seek help from when they get "stuck" in some aspect of their lives.

I take an active, interactive, and supportive approach to therapy and use a variety of approaches as needed, sometimes working with the past and always with applications to the present.

Do you feel like you're constantly letting people down, even when you're trying your hardest? You're successful on paper, but inside you're scattered, forgetting commitments, saying yes when you mean no. The pressure to perform is relentless at work, and your relationships are strained because you're either hyperfocused on tasks or too overwhelmed to show up. Shame and guilt are constant companions. Maybe it's ADHD, maybe it's anxiety, maybe it's just how your brain works, but adulting feels impossible. Intimacy brings more stress than connection. You're exhausted from white-knuckling through life and ready to understand why.

As a trauma-informed certified sex therapist, I'm here to offer you a safe and nonjudgmental space to explore all the things you've been afraid to say out loud.
Many of my clients come to me feeling disconnected - from themselves, their bodies, their relationships, or their true desires. Often this disconnection stems from past trauma, anxiety, or the pressures of performance and perfectionism that weigh heavily on our systems. People bring me things they might not feel safe talking about with other providers or even friends, such as body image issues, erectile dysfunction, childhood abuse, and identity concerns. I specialize in working with queer, nonmonogamous, and kinky folks, though I'm happy to show up for anyone who is ready to nurture a deeper sense of connection in their lives.

Sex Therapy Therapists
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.
