Sexual Problems

Many of us were raised to view sex as taboo; a topic that is not discussed openly. This attitude, in turn, has led to many people suffering in silence. Whether your concerns are related to sexual trauma, internalized ideas of what sex "should" be, or mismatches of libido in relationships, I feel that the first step is vocalizing your experience in a safe, non-judgmental space. I will honor your trust in me and provide support and tools to enhance your sexual expression.

Sex is often intimate and pleasurable. Other times its the unspoken wedge or continual source of frustration in a relationship. Whether this is an open comfortable topic or if you have never talked to someone about sex, I am a safe and confidential person to talk with. Perhaps your questioning your sexual identity, body image concerns, or what you find pleasurable as an individual. Are you and your partner questioning frequency, satisfaction, considering an open relationship, something else?

I provide a safe, judgement-free environment within which clients can be vulnerable and honest with themselves in effort to become more comfortable with their own sense of sex and sexuality in hopes of gaining more balance within their lives.

It's easy to understand why anyone would have sexual problems. No one teaches us how to be healthy sexual beings. We're taught all kinds of stuff that's wrong and we have to make up a lot of what we do by trial and error. It's a silly way to learn something so vital to our lives. I'm sure that whatever you struggle with is common. It won't surprise me. Come see me to find out what no one would teach you in a safe caring way.
