As a therapist focusing on human sexuality; I personally understand challenges of life and relationships while professionally instilling hope and motivation to many of various cultures. Whether from a biblical or secular perspective; sex is to be enjoyed. Past experiences play an integral part in the present and future. Sexual dysfunction is often a silent subject screaming for a sense of relief and release. What's designed to reduce stress can actually provoke it when the body is inhibited due to anxiety, depression, guilt, illness, abuse or other negative factors. What's your burden? We are dedicated to help you get beyond it.

Life has a way to dealing certain cards that can have a huge impact how we see and interact with the world around us. Those experiences mixed with negative feelings/emotions can create disruptions or disharmony in our life's; leaving us feeling angry, depressed, anxious, ashamed, hurt, disappointed, confused, unbalance, or traumatized. Any issue left unresolved has the potential to create or continue an unhealthy cycle of functioning. Using therapy, I provide clients with the space/environment where they can explore and process past and present experiences that impact how they feel and function.

Being a kid is HARD, I get it. Being a parent is no easy task either. As a parent, you want the very best for your child/teen.

Whether the problem is big emotions that spiral out of control, trouble making friends, constant worries, daily fights with parents, military life stress, or low self-worth, I can help you and your child/teen navigate life's issues.
