Commitment to Sexual Wellness and Sex Therapy
I appreciate that sexual concerns are very private and can be difficult to discuss. I strive to provide compassionate care with collaboration with your other providers as needed to help you navigate your specific needs. I am actively pursuing certification in Sex Therapy, reflecting my belief that sexual health and satisfaction are vital components of overall mental and emotional well-being. My approach to sex therapy is integrative, specialized, and always non-judgmental.
I help individuals and couples address a wide range of sensitive concerns, including:
Sexual Dysfunction (e.g., difficulties with arousal, orgasm, or erection concerns).
Desire Discrepancies (navigating differences in sexual interest).
Painful Intercourse (Dyspareunia) (addressing psychological factors contributing to physical discomfort).
Intimacy & Communication Barriers (helping partners communicate openly about sexual needs and desires).
Sexual Trauma Recovery (processing the impact of past trauma on one's current sex life and relationship with their body).
Infidelity & Trust Repair (addressing the sexual consequences and rebuilding connection after betrayal).
Sexual Identity & Orientation (providing an affirming space for exploration, acceptance, and integration of one's identity).
Sexual Boredom/Dissatisfaction (reigniting connection and exploring new paths to mutual pleasure).
Performance Anxiety & Body Image Issues.
Sexual Challenges due to Illness or Life Transitions (e.g., postpartum, chronic pain, or medical conditions).
Trauma Informed Healing
Past experiences can profoundly impact our present relationships and sense of self. I provide trauma-informed care to help you process and move beyond difficult memories, focusing on:
Reducing the impact of past trauma on present functioning.
Developing effective emotional regulation and grounding skills.
Reclaiming your sense of safety and control within your body and relationships.
General Mental Health Concerns
I also provide comprehensive support for general mental health issues, ensuring we address the full scope of your well-being. This includes:
Anxiety & Stress: Developing effective coping strategies and finding relief from persistent worry.
Life Transitions: Guiding you through major changes, such as career shifts, relationship status changes, or parenting challenges.
Self-Esteem & Personal Growth: Helping you build confidence, clarify values, and work towards personal fulfillment.
Affirmative & Inclusive Practice
I hold a specific certification in LGBTQIA+ Affirmative Therapy. My commitment is to create a therapeutic environment where all clients—regardless of sexual orientation, gender identity, or relationship structure (including polyamory and kink-aware therapy)—feel deeply seen, respected, and understood.
