My clients have ranged in age from their 20's to their 90's. I see individuals and couples. Some couples are interfaith or intercultural and others are as ordinary as your next-door neighbors.
I am also consulted by other therapists seeking guidance on their client cases or their own sexuality-related matters. And I provide clinical supervision required for therapists working toward formal AASECT accreditation as Certified Sex Therapists.
Issues which clients often want to discuss include:
- lack or loss of sexual interest in a partner
- reconciling differences
- lack of self-confidence
- sexual trust
- overcoming inhibition, fears, discomfort
- overcoming negative attitudes and messages
- clarifying wants, needs, expectations
- negotiating mutual satisfaction
- resentment
- feelings about inexperience or past behavior
- feelings about past negative experiences
- finding new expressions of sexuality
- rediscovering sexual energy
- looking for spark, renewal
- understanding impulses
- sexually compulsive behavior
- self-acceptance
- self-exploration
- attitudes about erotica, pornography
- body-image issues
- orientation and gender issues
- coming-out
- post-childbirth, post-operational, post-illness
- sex and disabilities
As an experienced sex therapist, I provide the opportunity to discuss these or other topics in a relaxed, non-medical, non-judgmental setting at your own pace. I can help you establish a comfort level in discussing and enjoying sexuality. Many clients find it's a huge relief finally to talk about worries and concerns like these with an understanding, sympathetic, well-informed professional who can talk easily and naturally about sexual matters.
Non-conventional couples are welcome.
