An idea client can be answered different depending on each therapist, but I would have to say that my idea client is one that is motivated and are ready to work, Open-minded, flexible, adaptable and are curious about themselves. Also, the idea client is consistent (with payment & appointments) and will tolerate pain for growth if necessary. Through therapy, we ask clients to step beyond where they are, and what limits them. Defining my ideal client is simply me as a therapist, asking myself to do the same thing. As a therapist, I should be able to do what my client, through therapy, will be doing. Without fear.

I am glad that YOU have decided to stop by! Have you been feeling anxious, angry, depressed, or frustrated? Perhaps you have experienced loss, trauma, grief or relational issues. Maybe life has just become too overwhelming for you and you're trying to navigate through the peaks and valleys. Soliciting the help of others is not always easy. But I am happy that you were courageous enough to take bold steps towards creating change for yourself.

As a therapist focusing on human sexuality; I personally understand challenges of life and relationships while professionally instilling hope and motivation to many of various cultures. Whether from a biblical or secular perspective; sex is to be enjoyed. Past experiences play an integral part in the present and future. Sexual dysfunction is often a silent subject screaming for a sense of relief and release. What's designed to reduce stress can actually provoke it when the body is inhibited due to anxiety, depression, guilt, illness, abuse or other negative factors. What's your burden? We are dedicated to help you get beyond it.
