Happy Couple
Couples Therapy

 

In couples therapy I facilitate communication between you and your partner to uncover the roots of the conflict you're having, help you understand each others' feelings, and change behavior to better meet each others' needs.​

​

Some concerns I can help you with in couples therapy:

  • Conflict and disagreements

  • Difficulty communicating

  • Sexual concerns or lack of sex in relationship

  • Healing from an affair

  • Navigating non-monogamous relationships

 

You may fear that talking about your relationship issues is going to make them worse. Sometimes things feel worse before they feel better, but my goal is that you experience greater understanding and closeness as a result of therapy.

​

Individual Therapy


Therapy is a process of better understanding your thoughts, feelings, behaviors, and relationships, and working together with a therapist to make changes in these areas to achieve valued goals.

 

Some concerns I can help you with in individual therapy:

  • Anxiety

  • Depression

  • Trauma

  • Relationship issues or patterns

  • Sexual concerns

  • Self-esteem

  • Personal growth

​

I know it can be challenging to start therapy, but things are usually better on the other side. Since therapy often involves talking about difficult aspects of your life, it can be emotional at times. On the other hand, therapy has been shown to have benefit for people who go through it, often leading to better relationships, solutions to problems, and significant reductions in feelings of distress,

Sex Therapy

​

Sex therapy involves talking about your sexual concerns and figuring out what you can do to make them better. It often involves homework, but there's never any sexual activity in sessions. You may wonder if "just talking" about sexual problems is going to help you, but my approach combines talking about problems to understand them better and taking active steps to improve them.

​

Some concerns I can help you with in sex therapy:

  • Desire

  • Orgasm

  • Painful sex

  • Erectile concerns

  • Rapid ejaculation

  • Sexual adjustment after cancer or illness

  • Anxiety, body image concerns, embarrassment, or shame about sex

  • Sexual behavior that feels out-of-control or harmful

  • Past sexual trauma​

 

Some people worry that sex therapy will involve endless talking about your past, your parents, or your deepest secret fantasies and sexual desires. These topics may come up, but we will focus on how these things affect your life and your concerns now. We will tend to focus on the present rather than the past as the setting for making change.
