My areas of expertise include individual and couples therapy involving topics of sexuality and gender journeys, sex therapy, sexual disorders/dysfunction, BDSM/kink, relationship therapy, related depression and/or anxiety, and trauma.
Sometimes we find ourselves lost and need help getting back on the path to our best selves. Therapy can assist you on getting back on that path through collaborative self discovery. I believe people are the experts of their own experiences and together we can find and repair tools that are going to get you to where you want to go.

I enjoy working with people in the second half of life, couples of all ages working on their relationship including conflict and sexuality, with men who want to understand themselves better.
For me, therapy is about transformation--dealing with old feelings, memories, regrets that are now getting in the way of living and functioning. Transformation may also be about moving into or out of relationships, jobs, locations, lifestyle, or an era of one's life. I like to help people deal with who they are, with the meaning of their life, and the importance of their feelings, relationships, and vocation. I want to hear your story, understand your pain, and work with you to discover your healing resources within, and find hope for living more deeply.

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.
