Seeking support with sexual challenges, relationships, living with cancer, grief, or a combination of these? With 20 years of experience providing therapy and AASECT certification as a sex therapist, you can talk with me about the things others are uncomfortable talking about. You may have experienced the death of a loved one or a different type of life transition. You may be struggling with adjusting to a new relationship or feeling disappointed with an aspect of your current one. I can provide you with support, insights, treatment, education, and guidance during times of transition and beyond.
While some clients make the choice to pursue working with a therapist because of a specific life event or situation, others make the choice because of a desire for self-growth and a general improvement in well-being. Regardless of your reason, I welcome you to contact me.
It's not easy to seek support. I'm easy-going, approachable, and genuinely want you to feel better. Send me a message and we can figure out how to make that happen.
