About
Are relationships supposed to be this hard? When sexual issues keep you from maintaining or obtaining a happy relationship it's time to see a sex therapist. As a sex & relationship specialist, I successfully treat people with issues surrounding sexual desire & performance, sexual trauma, problems with arousal or orgasm, differences in the amount of sex they'd like to have, & sexual pain disorders such as vaginismus. I assist clients in building intimacy by deepening their mutual understanding & compassion (for their often very opposite mate!) and help them stay accountable for taking positive action to improve relationships.
In addition to couples work, I also specialize in singles who need additional support in dating, relationship/sexual inexperience, sexual anorexia, breakups & general anxiety. We will work together to understand & resolve the patterns in your relationships, identify any avoidant or toxic partners, & address any obstacles to commitment, trust, or sex.
Credentials: AASECT. Certified Sex Therapist; PsyD. in Marriage & Family Therapy from The Chicago School of Professional Psychology; Treatment of Sexual Assault Survivors via Trauma-Focused Cognitive Behavioral Therapy training from Strength United.
