This list is not inclusive and I have experience with a wide breadth of sexual and relationship concerns. Reach out to see if what you're wanting help with is in my wheelhouse!

You don't need to struggle alone with dread, anxiety, guilt and shame over your sex life. The first step to freeing yourself from being stuck in your head is a few simple clicks:
Sex is a cornerstone of the human experience so when it's going well, we take it for granted. When it's not going well, not only can this be upsetting, isolating and shameful, but it can also bleed into communication, connection and intimacy. Many people start to wonder if the relationship can work if sexual concerns persist.
When we face an obstacle or challenge, we are taught to work harder to overcome this. This works in a lot of areas, but with sex, it tends to get people more stuck and deepen existing vicious cycles (i.e. anxiety about performance creating issues with performance which causes more anxiety, and so on). We also tend to live in our heads, worrying about the future, and not feeling present to the current moment.
My job as a Certified Sex Therapist is to give you the tools and techniques to look at this cycle and break it in a new, creative way. After several sessions, you will become well-versed at noticing this cycle, where you're vulnerable to fall into the cycle and what to do instead, whenever and wherever issues arise. And I don't mean one-size-fits-all sometimes-harmful suggestions like scheduling sex, "just relax!," "drink some wine" or "just have fun!"
