Relationships play a large role in our lives and greatly contribute to our overall well-being. Our sex life can be understood as a reflection of our relationships, how we feel about ourselves and others, and how we are functioning in all aspects of our daily lives.
If your sexual health is suffering, it may be a symptom of suffering in other areas of your life as well.
I believe in a multifaceted approach to resolving sexual challenges and relationship issues, whether they have evolved recently, or have lingered for years.
By integrating education and psychological counseling with medical techniques and therapies, I am confident I can help you achieve clarity in your relationships, a sense of peace, and a full and satisfying sex life. That is the goal.
As a California-only licensed therapist (LMFT #80126) and certified AASECT Sex Therapist and Sexuality Educator with over 15 years of experience helping individuals infuse passion and joy into their lives and relationships, I've seen it all.
And you know what drives me crazy?
The fact that sex - or lack thereof - is one of the main reasons couples split up and individuals are left feeling stifled, unsatisfied, and frustrated in their relationships with others and themselves!
This is a totally solvable problem, but we must start talking about it and taking action.
When we work together, I will give you the tools you need to get in tune with your libido, enhance your relationships, and have a fulfilling sex life to boot!
As a counselor and educator, I chose to pursue sex therapy specifically because of the need for proper education about intimacy - without the stigma.
To gain further expertise in the field, I studied at UCLA and Santa Clara University, earning a Master’s degree in Counseling Psychology with a health emphasis.
After finding my passion for sex therapy, I decided to further my education at the California Institute of Integral Studies (CIIS) in San Francisco for a Ph.D. in Human Sexuality.
