About My Clients

You want confidence and satisfaction in your sexual life and relationships. You may be functioning well in many areas, yet feeling frustrated or unsettled in your intimate relationships. You may be experiencing: performance anxiety or difficulty with arousal; low or mismatched desire; disconnection from a partner; stress impacting intimacy; shame related to sexuality or identity; and communication challenges. You’re ready to address this directly.

My Background and Approach

My work is grounded in evidence-based practice and informed by relational and somatic approaches that address both psychological and physiological aspects of sexuality. I help clients experiencing sexual concerns such as performance anxiety, low or mismatched desire, intimacy challenges, and communication difficulties. Treatment involves identifying patterns and beliefs and building practical skills to strengthen connection. Clients often gain greater confidence, clearer communication, and a more satisfying intimate life.

My Personal Beliefs and Interests

I affirm diverse identities and relationship structures, including kink, BDSM, and consensual non-monogamy. These dynamics are not pathologized in my practice. Instead, we focus on consent, communication, nervous system regulation, and alignment with your values. I also work with clients navigating the intersection of sexuality and religious belief. Whether faith is a source of strength or conflict, we approach it with intellectual respect and emotional nuance.
