Guidance to couples and individuals who want to explore their sexuality, rekindle and enjoy satisfying intimacy, as well as deepen their love and connection.

As a certified sex therapist with education, training, and experience in the field of human sexuality as well as psychotherapy, I take a holistic approach to assess your concerns and issues specific to sexual problems, looking for ways that will allow you to improve/enhance your sexual health and relationship(s) through a variety of talk therapy and “non-touch” therapeutic methods.

I look at the sexuality of the person within the context of his or her daily life, including beliefs, attractions, culture, health, psychology, and unique erotic profile.

My stance is sex-positive and affirming. I support personal and relational satisfaction and celebrating connection and pleasure. I believe that people benefit when they reduce their levels of guilt and shame, allowing them to learn to celebrate their sexuality, their bodies, and their connections to it.

My Approach

I believe sexuality is an important component of self-expression, deserving of the attention given to other emotional issues. I understand that talking about issues surrounding sex can be extremely sensitive for many.

My goal is to create a comfortable and safe environment for clients to explore issues of sexuality and gender expression, resolve and confront sexual problems, and improve sexual relationships and awareness.
