About
Do you ever wonder about or question your relationship to sex? Is there just never enough sex? Do you struggle with emotional intimacy and connecting with others? Do you notice that you repeatedly lie to others, even those closest to you, about your sexual behaviors? As a trained Certified Sexual Addiction therapist (CSAT) I can help you to be curious about, answer, make sense of, and navigate these and many other complex questions. Through a detailed, comprehensive assessment and evaluation process I can help you determine if you have a Compulsive Sexual Behavior Disorder that would benefit from specific intervention and treatment.
I have extensive experience working with clients who struggle with addictions (sex, porn, alcohol, illicit drugs, food), trauma and anxiety disorders. I am trained in EMDR Levels I and II and am an Internal Family Systems (IFS) informed therapist.
I completed a Fellowship at Boston University's Danielsen Institute where I was trained in psychodynamic psychotherapy. I also completed a Postgraduate Fellowship at the Massachusetts Institute for Psychoanalysis. I am a certified sex addiction therapist through the International Institute of Trauma and Addiction Professionals (IITAP) organization.
