Sexual Problems

I treat female issues ranging from vaginismus to low libido to menopause-related symptoms, and male issues such as delayed ejaculation and inability to achieve erection. I also teach my clients the sexual health model so they have language for sex and an understanding that regardless of gender, sexuality, and desired sexual behavior, as long as nobody is hurt and everyone gives consent, there is a very wide range of sexual health.

I am currently obtaining my sex therapy certification through the Sexual Health Alliance (www.sexualhealthalliance.com), an AASECT-approved education program. I am a "sex-positive" therapist which means that I do not shame clients for ANY sexual issue they want to discuss.Contrary to what some believe, there’s nothing strange, deviant, or kinky about seeing a sex therapist. The bottom line is that people experience sexual problems and need a professional who specializes in that type of therapy.

Sexuality, desire, libido, and fantasy are all a natural and beautiful expression of being human, yet it can be difficult to navigate your own inner sexual terrain when you're afraid of judgment or shame. I offer a safe space where you can explore and heal any blockages to a vibrantly healthy sex life.

I have specialized training in working with sexual health issues, specifically focusing out of control sexual behaviors and the impact of trauma on sexual functioning.

As an AASECT Certified Sex Therapist, I work with a wide variety of sexual health concerns. If you are experiencing physical pain or challenging emotions, or have the desire for your relationships and your sexuality to feel different or better, we can do great work together to help.

As a sex therapist, I can help with issues related to gender identity and expression and sexual orientation and expression. I am sex positive and kink affirming. I stand with people in the sexual/gender minorities and advocate for recognition, respect, rights, and safety.

On the spectrum of sexual concerns, I work with all parts: compulsive sexual behavior, a need for more intimacy, and aversion. I help clients understand their relationship with sex and create a healthy relationship with it that is aligned with their values.

I am to provide a safe and non-judgmental environment for individuals and couples to discuss their concerns openly. I work collaboratively with clients to identify the physical, psychological, and relational factors contributing to sexual issues. Through communication exercises, education, and personalized strategies, I help clients develop healthier attitudes towards sex, overcome performance anxiety, and improve sexual communication.

I support clients healing from sexual abuse, sexual assault, purity culture, and compulsory heterosexuality. I help clients work through their history, process any relevant traumas and core beliefs, and work toward sexual liberation and authenticity.

Sex is supposed to be this amazing thing filled with fun, love, thrill, excitement that comes so natural to you. Yet is has become a chore, a reward/punishment game where you are treated like the Pavlov dog when the bell rings. Maybe you never enjoyed it in the first place and you hate your body or it just hurts. Maybe you use it compulsively to fill that void, you can't get enough yet the void gets bigger. I work with performance anxiety, desire discrepancy, out of control sexual behavior.

Our therapists are trained in sex therapy techniques that allow you to feel greater emotional intimacy and improve your physical connection. We treat a variety of sexual concerns in talk therapy, including desire discrepancy between partners, struggles with sexual desire, and more specific sexual issues.

I work with individuals and couples who experience erection and/or orgasm difficulties, sexual pain, anxiety towards human connection and touch, desire discrepancies, and sexual identity. What are your goals for your sex life?

Struggles with sexual desire, pleasure, or functioning, often stem from some combination of traumatic life events, health, relational issues, or life transitions. Sex therapy works to remove blocks in intimate connection in a supportive and non-judgement environment. Together discussion, guided exercises, and various homework assignments, we work to help you find your own erotic pathway towards connection, pleasure and satisfaction.

As a sex therapist, most of my professional work has been centered around helping folks navigate sexual issues. I use a sex-positive lens in working with sexual concerns. I will help you develop awareness of emotional and sociocultural factors that impact your sexuality, while also giving you practical tools that can create shifts in your sex life.

I work with individuals and couples to address issues such as performance anxiety, erectile issues, painful sex, mismatched libidos/desire discrepancy, body image, sexual exploration, kink/BDSM, and more.

I am working towards my certification in sex therapy including supporting clients in exploring low libido, desire discrepancy, premature ejaculation, erectile dysfunction, kinks, fetish, healing from past sexual abuse to have a great and meaningful sexual life.

Working in therapy to understand and address the many sources that influence your sexuality, eroticism, and desire helps to untangle unhelpful narratives about sex. This results in improved feelings and attitudes toward sex and your body. I also work with you to align your actions with your values so you can stop the cycle of shame and guilt from unfulfilling behaviors.
