Sexual Problems

Eeek! In our sex-negative society, it's SO HARD to know what to do when you're having a problem related to sex. I can help you to relax so you can understand and explore your own sexuality, what you desire, and what brings you pleasure. We can practice talking about it so you can be comfortable bringing it up with your partner(s) in a way that feels authentic to you. We can also untangle stories that have you confused about what is "normal", so you can focus on getting what you want!

As a Sex Therapist, I take a sex positive approach, and emphasize consent, clear communication, values, safety, honesty, and pleasure. These approaches help clients relieve shame, guilt, and stigma. I also focus on helping clients learn more about updated and science based sex ed, explore their sexual interests, and increase self-acceptance.

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 help couples with sexual problems such as discrepancies in sexual desire in the relationship. You can have the satisfying sex life that you are hoping for. I use sex therapy techniques including psychoeducation, talk therapy techniques that improve sexual communication, and experiential homework exercises.

Is it difficult to discuss sex with your partner(s) without arguing or hurt feelings? Are you experiencing a difference in sexual desire than your partner? Is sex painful, or not enjoyable? Or maybe you are repair your relationship after infidelity? Many people suffer with sexual problems and don't know where to go to get help. As a Certified Sex Therapist, I can help you make your relationship (and sex life) better!

As I work towards being a sex therapist, I encounter many people struggling with sexual dysfunction, histories of sexual abuse and sexual addictions.

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.

I possess a nuanced understanding of the unique challenges and dynamics that encompass sexual health and intimacy within the LGBTQ+ community. Drawing upon a foundation of inclusive and affirmative practices, I provide a safe and nonjudgmental space for individuals to explore their sexual identities, desires, and concerns. My expertise extends beyond traditional therapeutic approaches to incorporate an intersectional lens towards sexual health and wellness.

I am an AASECT certified sex therapist. I am trained to treat a variety of sex-related issues including sexual dysfunction, sexual pain, lack of sex in relationship, the betrayal of infidelity, and open/consensually non-monogamous relationships. I also help those struggling in the aftermath of sex-related trauma. I particularly thrive helping relationships of all kinds find sexual fulfillment and emotional intimacy in their connection.

We help couples work through sexual challenges. We help couples with desire discrepancies, communication around sex, sexual trauma history, reconnecting after becoming parents or medical illness, and wanting more enjoyment and fun in sex.

When clients come to me with sexual concerns, they often feel isolated and tell me that their self-esteem has been impacted. Many sexual issues can be successfully addressed through sex therapy including low libido, pain, difficulty with orgasm, erectile dysfunction, premature ejaculation, sexual shame, desire discrepancy between partners, and navigating kink / BDSM. I operate from a sex-positive and collaborative perspective.

Concerns about sexual functioning take a nuanced and specialized approach. I have specific training in treating concerns about sexual functioning including erectile dysfunction, sex addiction, low desire, and differing libidos. I bring sensitivity, compassion, and practical solutions that produce lasting results.

Does this sound familiar: You have good intentions, but attempts to stop your destructive sexual behaviors have been unsuccessful. You are hesitant to label yourself as an “addict", yet you feel that something is definitely wrong. You're smart, successful, and otherwise have a good life... but you also know that healthy sexuality shouldn’t involve feeling anxious or shameful, and shouldn't control your life, so you're here looking for help.

Infidelity and Porn are big issues. But I am more concerned with the marital sexual experiences. Get the relationship and sex right and the other issues are much easier to deal with. Sex is a very pressured filled experience. It is a vulnerable and scary act, though it is intended to be fun and amazing in how it can extend our emotional intimacy, as God intended it to be.

I love talking about sex. I love helping people have great sex. Our society is filled with shame about our bodies and sex that many of my clients have never talked about it with anyone, including their sexual partners. Society has sexualized all touch and made it so people feel like sex is the only place they can be touched. Many of our relationship issues and stressors impact our sex lives and prevent us from feeling connected and fulfilled in our interactions. I'm also supportive of asexuality

Obstacles to achieving pleasure-filled sex with ourselves or others are endless and often interconnected between solo and partnered experiences. You deserve to a sex life full of pleasure, meaning, and connection. Support for individuals, couples, and ENM relationships wanting to thrive.

I approach sexual problems with empathy and expertise, offering a safe and nonjudgmental environment for individuals and couples to explore their concerns, desires and what may impeding pleasure. Through evidence-based interventions, open communication, and collaborative goal-setting, I help clients address sexual difficulties such as erectile dysfunction, low libido, and intimacy issues, empowering them to achieve greater satisfaction and fulfillment in their sexual lives.

Are you struggling to feel satisfied in your sex life? Sex therapy can help. It's a nonjudgmental, positive space to explore your concerns and develop solutions that work for you. You'll receive guidance, support, and tools to reconnect with your partner, improve communication, and foster a healthy sexual relationship. I'm here to help you find the satisfaction you deserve.
