Sex is a normal, necessary part of human existence yet many people experience problems with sex including pain, lack of desire, or an inability to reach orgasm. Have you been avoiding talking to a sex therapist because you are afraid they’ll judge you? I will never judge you. Nothing you say is going to shock me, scare me, or make me stop working with you. Some people need a safe place to explore their sexual or gender identity. If you have been waiting for someone to be able to help you understand sexual thoughts, behaviors, and preferences then email me today
How would you feel if I could help you understand and explain your behaviors and preferences or why you experience problems or feel shame? How would it feel to hear “you’re normal, your behaviors are normal, your desires are healthy, your sexual or gender identity is normal, you’re not broken, there is nothing wrong with who you are and what you like."
I provide sex positive nonjudgmental sex therapy. I provided a safe space to talk about anything you need to talk about including anything related to sex, sexuality, kink, nonmonogamy, and gender identity. I work with all types of individuals and couples. I have presented at conferences on Sex After Sexual Abuse, Normalizing BDSM, and on LGBTQ+ clients.

Sex therapy (with the exclusion of sexual trauma therapy) is usually short term therapy, requiring 8 sessions or less. Most clients notice positive changes within 4 sessions. Many people have difficulty talking about sex or sexual issues so I try to make your experience as comfortable as possible. No matter what you tell me I will never judge or shame you for your experiences, desires, or issues.
