    Low Libido

Maybe you’ve experienced a lack of interest in sex or desire for any form of sexual exploration for a while but don’t know what that's about. You’re certainly not alone, and more importantly, you’re not broken, and there is nothing wrong with you.

We’ll explore underlying issues, such as stress, relationship dynamics, medical conditions, past experiences, and more areas of your life that may impact your sexual functioning. And always remember, Low Libido, Low Sex Drive, Low Desire is not a problem unless YOU are feeling distressed by it therefore I always want to support you in developing a healthy relationship with your sexuality in the way that feels best and most affirming for you.

  • Sexual Anxiety

    Anxiety + Sex, the combo no one ever asked for and yet here we are. Sex should be fun, pleasurable and exciting, but if you’re dealing with performance anxiety or nervousness around sex, it can feel anything but fun, in fact, it can put a halt to sex entirely. Just imagine a new Inside Out movie where anxiety starts going balls to the walls wild when Riley has her first make out, let alone, sex. So, what’s the good news….The good news is we can explore this together and figure out where the anxiety is coming from and explore ways to interrupt and deal with anxiety around sex. I know talking about sex can feel uncomfortable, especially talking to a stranger?!?! My aim is to create a comfortable non-judgemental space where you can openly discuss your nerves, fears, and concerns around sex and performance anxiety. Everyone’s experience with sexual anxiety is unique to them but you’re not alone in dealing with this. Sex therapy can help by exploring past experiences, societal pressures, relationship dynamics, and more issues that may be contributing to sexual anxiety.

  • Erectile Dysfunction

    No one wants to seem to talk about Erectile Dysfunction (ED); It can be frustrating, it can cause embarrassment, it can cause Shame and just prevent people from experiencing a pleasurable sexual life. It’s important to remember you’re not alone. Many people experience Erectile Dysfunction but never get the support because they are suffering in silence. I know talking about Erectile Dysfunction can feel awkward and nerve wracking. Sex Therapy is meant to create a container of safety, comfort, and non judgment in order for you to comfortably talk about your experiences with Erectile Dysfunction. Sex Therapy will help by exploring underlying causes of ED which can range from physiological factors to emotional or psychological factors. Understanding the root of the problem will be our first step toward finding solutions and helping you navigate Erectile Dysfunction.

  • Sexual Identity

    Sexual Identity can be a complex and deeply personal journey. I know my journey with sexual identity certainly was. Where do We even begin?For most of us, no one ever really taught us about sexual identity (not in my generation that is) so of course there can be much to explore. Maybe You’re questioning your sexual preferences, or exploring new aspects of your sexual identity, I’m here to support you with that process. I understand that discussing and exploring sexual identity can be sensitive and sometimes challenging. It can bring up a lot of emotions, reactions, potential shame, excitement, and a plethora of other feelings. I want to help you explore sexual identity in a comprehensive way and support you in integrating your sexual identity into your life in a way that feels fulfilling. I want you to feel Liberated in your sexual identity and who you are.
