Are you up late again tonight thinking about this? Is your sex life making you feel lonely, sad or disconnected from your partner? Would you like to increase your communication and pleasure? Are you missing that intimacy and sexual connection? Perhaps you are trying to figure out why your relationships aren't working or distressed over sex/porn. I want to help you get beyond betrayals, anxiety, and past traumas that may be hindering your relationships and intimacy. I specialize in sex therapy and trauma and I can help. Sex talk can be uncomfortable, I provide a non-judgmental place to explore these sensitive issues with you.
My focus is to help you bring back the excitement in your life/relationships. My goal is to help individuals and couples learn to value your own pleasure so you can create satisfying sexual and fulfilling relationships.I believe a healthy and satisfying intimate connection is an essential component to a trusting and safe relationship.
Additionally, I specialize in helping those heal from past trauma-relational and complex. My clients have found my approach compassionate and solution focused. I have a Master's degree in Counseling/Marriage Family, and Child Therapy. I am an AASECT certified Sex Therapist. Gottman Level II as well certified EMDR therapist for trauma.
