A Therapist Who Isn’t Afraid to Talk About Sex
I’ve always been fascinated by sex, intimacy, and relationships, and I noticed early on that I felt comfortable discussing topics that most people avoid. While others felt embarrassed or uncertain, I was curious and open—wanting to understand how sex positivity, sexual trauma, and emotional intimacy shapes our wellbeing, identity, and connection. That curiosity became my calling. By combining my passion for helping others with my comfort in discussing sex and sexuality, I built a career helping individuals and couples overcome sexual challenges, relationship struggles, and emotional barriers to fulfilling physical and emotional intimacy.
Sex Positive: Helping Couples Bring Fun Back Into Sex
While maintaining sustainable change involves an understanding of psychology, attachment, trauma, and relationship dynamics; my past experience as a Sex Coach and Independent Romance Consultant, shaped my understanding that helping sex therapy can also be playful, solutions focused, and educational.

Sex Is Hard to Talk About — And That’s Exactly Why Therapy Matters
I understand that sexual concerns often come with shame, fear, or isolation. Many clients come in thinking they’re alone—but you’re not, and there is hope.
I’ve worked with individuals and couples navigating:
- Low sexual desire
- Erectile or orgasm difficulties
- Sexual trauma recovery
- Communication breakdowns
- Performance anxiety
- Healing after infidelity
- Rebuilding intimacy
- Sex after pregnancy, parenting, peri/menopause
- Sexual confidence and empowerment
My approach is collaborative, practical, and compassionate—helping you build a healthier relationship with your sexuality, both individually and in your relationships.
You’re in Good Hands
Diverse Experience. A Broader Perspective.
My previous experience as a leadership and professional development Coach and Trainer, including certification in The 7 Habits of Highly Effective People, gives me a practical understanding of how personal growth, communication, and emotional intelligence impact both our professional and personal lives. This background also informs my understanding of the challenges of work-life balance and how career demands can affect relationships, intimacy, and sexuality.
When I’m Not in Session…
I enjoy long walks along the beach… not really. Seriously, I love doing anything that will make me laugh, listening to music and podcasts, playing pickleball (sorry tennis players), and spending time with friends and my family. Professionally I love writing and speaking about sexuality, relationships, and women’s issues, and I’m committed to normalizing conversations around intimacy. I continue to invest in my personal and professional growth and work to create spaces where people feel safe discussing even the most vulnerable parts of their lives.
