Sex Therapy
Most people will face at least one sexual concern during their lifetime and anxiety can be connected to several sexual concerns.
As therapists, we treat the whole person. Sexuality is an important part of the human experience and a vital part of your overall health.
But for some people, their sexual beliefs and/or past experiences can lead to depression, relationship complications, loss of confidence, and many other negative impacts.
As a therapist that works with couples, I see the impact that sexual issues can have on relationship satisfaction and emotional disconnection. I strive to deepen intimacy and understanding with yourself and your partner.
I help individuals to prioritize pleasure because it brings deeper intimacy and connection to themselves and to their relationship. I also help them to communicate with one another about their sexual
The goal of sex therapy is to help people move past physical and emotional challenges so they can have a satisfying relationship and a pleasurable sex life - whatever that looks like for you, at your stage of life. Sex means many things. We need to talk about it - we have to have those difficult conversations so people can see just how normal they really are.
