I address intimacy issues, relational trauma, infidelity, and sexual dysfunctions in sex therapy.
When there are relational or sexual problems between loved ones, it can leave you feeling stuck, isolated, or defeated. You might feel like you are the problem. You are not alone and I can help. These feelings often come from early childhood messages that stay with us and interfere with our adult relationships. Being able to access and challenge these blocking messages can unlock a world to feeling more worth, connectivity and intimacy. I am a Licensed Marriage and Family therapist, Board Certified Sex therapist and Clinical Sexologist with the experience needed to start you towards your best life today!

I also work with those struggling with depression, anxiety, relational problems, including family systems. Starting this journey can feel awkward at first, but I am here to provide a safe environment for you to process and address a variety of your concerns.

Growing up in a family marked by deep-seated intergenerational trauma, I developed a strong interest in helping couples who struggle to communicate and express themselves due to past hurts. I have noticed how this kind of trauma affects people's close relationships, especially the ones where they should feel most comfortable. I firmly believe that in any relationship, both partners should be able to speak up and feel safe sharing their thoughts and feelings. In my approach, I want to really know clients as individuals, not just the problems they are facing.

As a former Division I Athlete and US National Team Member, I believe that one of the bravest things we can do is learning how to love ourselves through the process of owning our own storying. Often times the first brave step is just reaching out. Society tends to view therapy as something you need if you have “failed” on your own. However, I tend to think the counseling process is one where we invite someone else to walk alongside us on our journey of figuring out who we are. I believe that as humans we are designed for relationship, and we aren’t intended to do and figure it all out alone.

Sex Therapy

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.
