I’m a Couples Therapist and Sex Therapist as well as the Co-founder of The Wellness Collective Therapy Group. In therapy, I utilize evidence-based techniques such as Cognitive-Behavioral Therapy, Mindfulness, Gottman, Emotionally Focused Therapy, and Neuroscience. Through a collaborative approach, I work with clients to overcome obstacles and achieve their goals. Together, we explore thoughts and feelings surrounding sex and relationships, while ensuring a supportive environment for growth.
I address a wide range of issues including anxiety, sexual dysfunction, low libido, infidelity, communication problems, intimacy issues, and other challenges that can arise in personal relationships. By creating a safe and non-judgmental space, I foster open and honest communication – a crucial element to developing healthy and fulfilling relationships.
My ultimate aim is to help individuals and couples navigate their unique journeys toward better intimacy and connection. By providing a warm and understanding space, I am committed to assisting clients in finding fulfillment in their sexual and romantic lives. If you are seeking support, I am here to help.
