Practice Information

Is your sex life causing you distress? Do you and your spouse or partner have mismatched sex drives? Lack of sexual interest? Difficulty with erectile dysfunction, premature ejaculation, or delayed ejaculation? Is sex painful or even impossible? Are you struggling with sex after cancer or because of chronic pain or illness? Have you had negative sexual experiences or trauma that interfere with sexual pleasure? Sexual addiction? Unwanted kinky behaviors? Confusion about orientation or gender? I specialize in treating people with all kinds of sexual problems. I used a solution-focused, brief approach to help heal you and your relationship so that you can have the kind of fulfilling sexual experiences you seek. There is no touching or disrobing; we are going to talk about and solve what's bothering you. I'll suggest reading and activities to do on your own. Meeting weekly, provided you are motivated to change, you'll accomplish real change.
