I help couples build deeper connections and enhance eroticism in their lives. I studied to obtain my Certification in Sex Therapy from the American Association of Sex Educators, Counselors and Therapists. My work focuses on a number of sexual health and mental health issues, including desire discrepancies, physical concerns that limit one's ability to enjoy preferred sexual activities, erotic recovery after infidelity and/or trauma, establishment of monogamy agreements, kink-affirming care and assistance to co-create polyamorous relationship agreements. I also see clients for more generalist concerns including anxiety, depression, the general stress of living in the world today. Some of the concerns I help couples and poly folks with include: communication difficulties and strategies for interpersonal effectiveness in relationship, including coaching on scripted communication strategies; enhancement of desire, play and eroticism; recovery from infidelity; integration of kink/poly dynamics.
