As a certified sex therapist, I help couples navigating non-monogamy, those in the kink community feel accepted for who they are and what they want, those that aren’t in touch with their sexuality discover themselves, and men struggling with the pressure to perform.
LET'S bring the spark back to your relationship! Whether that’s the relationship with yourself or someone else, I want to help you feel connected again. We are social creatures and desire connection, so when this is lacking in our relationships we can feel lost and alone. I use my training in EFT (Emotionally Focused Therapy) to help individuals and couples learn how to listen to what their partner is sharing with compassion and acknowledgement instead of the traditionally listen to respond that often leaves us feeling unheard. I work on going past the surface level and go deeper into the emotions/the root of the problem.

As a certified Sex Therapist, I specialize in working with clients who are experiencing distress around sexuality and/or looking to change how they experience their sexual selves.
I work to create a culturally affirming space to explore how systemic issues (such as sexism, heterosexism, racism, etc.) interact with clients' intersecting identities and cultural backgrounds, and thus impact their mental health concerns. I also engage in my own identity exploration work to be a more culturally responsive therapist and a better ally.

I have worked as a persona working on phd in sex therapy.
My ideal client is one that is tired of just surviving. They are wanting to change, but doesn’t know how. They have tried multiple therapist and still are struggling. They are barely able to function day to day and just want to find joy again. They just want to be happy. They feel like there is no hope or that they are broken.

I help individuals, couples, partners, and families with issues and topics related to infidelity, jealousy, sex and kink, grief and loss, and relational/spiritual trauma, especially if those issues intersect with LGBTQIA+ and BIPOC identities and/or non-traditional relational dynamics including polyamory, non-monogamy, single parent, and blended families.
As your therapist, I take a liberatory and non-pathological approach to the relational problems you are experiencing. Narrative therapy and the Hakomi method, a somatic mindfulness intervention, are the primary modalities I use to help clients explore the narratives and body-centered consciousness that pervade their relational experiences.

Sex Therapy Therapists
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.
