At times, life events can seem to control the way we feel, creating feelings of helplessness and hopelessness. Other times, you may struggle with feeling unmotivated or purposeless without any specific cause. I believe psychotherapy empowers people by understanding specific struggles while actively developing skills to create change. A key part of our work will be identifying the things that matter to you and finding ways that therapy can bring you closer to a life that is more connected with your values.

Experiencing emotional pain, worry about the future, and feeling stuck are common human conditions. Through therapy you can find new ways to change and relate differently to your feelings, thoughts, and actions. It is possible to live the life you’d like to live, and our work together can bring you closer to that reality. I provide a warm, supportive, collaborative and non-judgmental space where it is possible not only to reduce mental health symptomatology, but also to enhance the quality of your life through engagement in valued living. I offer both structured, time-limited treatment, and more exploratory, supportive work.

I can help you resolve sex-related anxiety, low or uneven libido, effects of sexual trauma and negative experiences, sexual functioning issues, lack of sexual confidence, and difficulty experiencing pleasure. I’m a clinical sexologist and a somatic therapy practitioner. I use Somatic Experiencing and other neurophysiology-based therapies to help release the negative patterns and blocks your body holds around sex and intimacy and to teach you how to feel more embodied, connected and confident. I combine this approach with sex coaching and education to help you achieve your unique vision for a pleasurable and fulfilling sex life.

**Please email me if you are interested in being added to my waiting list for individual therapy** I believe that clients who struggle with eating disorders have inherently painful emotions which are managed by various harmful behaviors. In that context these behaviors make sense! I work collaboratively with clients, their support network, and their outpatient providers to find ways to change these behaviors and manage emotions in both the short and long term.

I approach each client with the assumption that you are coming to me with an intention to alleviate discontentment or suffering. I see my job as helping you articulate your reasons for seeking therapy, to understand the source of your issues, and to find strategies that bring relief.
My style is interactive, with an emphasis on caring and supportive feedback. I expect the client to establish the agenda for each session, trusting that the client knows best what needs to be addressed in any given session. I emphasize psychoeducation about the role of, and differences between, thoughts, feelings and behaviors.
