My approach to sex therapy is about understanding and enhancing your sexual self, not pathologizing it. Your current relationship with sex does not exist in a vacuum.

We explore how sexual history, family messages, past partners, body image, and possible trauma shape your desire, arousal, and sense of safety today. I provide active strategies, structured exercises, guided conversations and practices that invite playfulness and exploration. This approach will help you move from frustration, anxiety, shame or fear toward a sexual life that feels more free, connected, and alive.

I work with individuals and couples on all aspects of sexuality, using effective, proven strategies and techniques that build trust, create real results, and can even make the process feel engaging and fun. I support people of all ages in exploring sensuality, playfulness, affection, and the role of sexuality in their broader sense of self and self-expression. My approach is LGBTQ-affirming and addresses a wide range of concerns, including shame, mistrust, trauma, and questions around identity and lifestyle. I also treat sexual difficulties such as libido issues, lack of experience, trauma-related challenges, and sexual dysfunctions, including unhelpful habits, delayed ejaculation, erectile dysfunction, orgasm difficulties, and premature ejaculation.

Owning your sexuality as a vital part of who you are means recognizing desires, boundaries, and preferences without shame,

I work with people from diverse backgrounds and sexual orientations on both emotional and sexual intimacy to foster trust, deliver meaningful results and invite moments of play and fun into the process. We’ll address relational dynamics and sexual patterns with the aim of bringing love and sex under one umbrella, so that emotional connection and erotic connection reinforce one another.

This includes evolving sexuality in long-term and aging relationships, keeping excitement alive, navigating commitment issues, and supporting affection, sensuality, and playfulness. I also help couples clarify and sustain their sexual styles and alternative lifestyle choices, such as polyamory and open relationships, in ways that feel honest, safe, and aligned for everyone involved.
