I specialize in helping men of all backgrounds address and overcome sexual challenges and identity issues, improve their intimate relationships, and enhance their sexual health. I'm experienced in helping clients struggling with sexual dysfunction, intimacy/relationship issues, non-monogamy/open relationships, kink exploration, sexual trauma, problematic sexual behavior, and those dealing with the emotional complexities of masculinity. I strive to create a non-judgmental and affirming space where clients can explore their thoughts, emotions, and experiences without fear of rejection.
I work with individuals and couples using Emotionally Focused (EFT), Attachment Based, Mindful Self-Compassion therapy. Despite my focus in men's issues, I have assisted numerous female clients regain self-confidence from attachment based wounds and relationship trauma.
Dealing with this issues can be a struggle but I strive to create a non-judgmental and affirming space where clients can explore their thoughts and experiences without fear of rejection. I offer 20 minute free consultations to ensure I am the right fit for you. Feel free to email for more information on how to get started.
