Sex Therapists in Culpeper, VA

I look forward to accompanying you on your journey of self-realization, whether it focuses on the past, present, or future. All evolving individuals are faced with real-life challenges and tragedies that, at times, upend their sense of well-being, leave them in a position of loss and confusion, lacking hope for the future. Life is more than a set of goals, it is also a path of twists and turns that require you to manuver though obstacles in order to find your authentic self. Allow therapy to be the vessel you travel upon on your way to discovering what matters the most and how you can achieve your highest goals.

Here’s the truth about life: it is uncomfortable. It is uncomfortable, tough, chaotic and, sometimes, we lose ourselves in it. Life is full of emotions that can be overwhelming and confusing, but once understood, can be transformative. If you want a therapist to help guide you towards your emotional, mental and physical goals - while also meeting you where you’re at without judgment - then I am likely a good fit for you. In my sessions, you’ll find a compassionate, safe, space where you will be gently challenged to discover, learn and grow. I often work with adults struggling with anxiety, trauma, grief, conflict and sexuality.

Sex, identity, and relationships can be integral parts of our lives. However, shame, miscommunication, and other life stress might prevent us from having the connections we want.
