Is there a disconnect between you and your partner(s) when it comes to your sex life? If so, please do not wait to get support! Because we were taught so little about sex, many of us shy away from the topic, but that just worsens things. Sex can start to feel like a chore and lack of sex can become the elephant in the room. It can even cause the end of your relationship if left unaddressed long enough. Before I became a sex therapist, I also found myself in this situation in my long-term relationship. But after 10,000 hours of coaching and counseling clients and becoming an AASECT certified sex therapist, I am confident I can help
I specialize in helping committed couples who have lost their sexy spark to get back to feeling close and passionate again. My holistic Intimacy Infusion method includes a thorough assessment, educational resources and practicing new communication skills in session with live feedback. I assign homework between sessions to help you build physical intimacy
The truth is, if you're reading this, you know your relationship needs help! I invite you to book a free Intimacy Breakthrough call with me to find out if I'm the one to offer that help. We'll get clear on where you feel stuck, where you want to be in 90 days (yes, that fast!) and how you can achieve them. If it's a good fit, we'll discuss working together!
