I understand that people may struggle with arousal, experience a loss of passion or sexual pleasure, or desire sex in different ways or at different frequencies than their partner or with different partners, as well as individuals experiencing sexual pain or difficulty achieving orgasm.
It is important to know that you don’t have to avoid your feelings, thoughts, and beliefs about sex or continue to feel like the topic of sex is too "taboo" to discuss. Sex therapy addresses a wide array of sexual concerns that impact both individuals and relationships. Sex therapy can help you to explore and have the sexual life you desire.
I am a sex-positive therapist, sex worker-friendly, and kink-aware. My practice is rooted in non-judgment, meaning I embrace your sexuality and identity without preconceived notions.
Often, we shape our lives, including our sexual experiences, based on perceived expectations, which may not align with our happiness. I provide a safe, non-judgmental space for you to freely express your thoughts and feelings. Together, we'll embark on a personalized therapeutic journey to foster deeper personal growth, helping you discover and confidently live your authentic self.
You might be wondering, "What is sex psychotherapy?" Simply put, sexual psychotherapy (or sexology) is where human sexuality intersects with mental health and wellness. Sex therapy offers a unique opportunity to reflect on your sexual experiences—past, present, and future. You'll set your own therapeutic goals, addressing challenges or dissatisfaction in your sex life, expression, or identity, whether stemming from internal thought patterns or external expression. These goals are often explored alongside common counseling topics, such as:
* Sexless marriage or relationship
* Relationship conflict
* Stress, anxiety, depression
* Gender identity
* Sexual arousal and response
* Infidelity
* Comfort and confidence in expressing your needs, wants, and desires
* Sexual behavior
* Perspectives on sexuality
* Sexual orientation
* Communication
* Sexual difficulties
* Sexual abuse and trauma
I grew up in an environment where discussing sex and sexuality was as normal and comfortable as discussing a balanced diet. My "Random: Get to Know Me" section on my website shares more about what sparked my ​initial passion. Through conversations with friends​ and others along my life journey, I realized ​that many​ ​people face taboos, shame, guilt, or embarrassment related to sex, gender, ​sexuality, and their bodies, I am committed to providing support and understanding. Throughout my life and education, I've dedicated myself to expanding my knowledge of sexual psychology and engaging with organizations and groups to deepen my understanding on both personal and professional levels.
