Do you feel like there's a disconnect with your partner when it comes to sex? I work with people in committed relationships who are struggling with lack of sex, sex feeling like a chore or just feeling like you're on different pages. Through my holistic Intimacy Infusion method, I help my clients to feel genuine desire again, gain confidence initiating sex and stop censoring themselves. The result is that they feel passionate again and are closer than ever before. No topics are off limits with me and all sincere goals and concerns are welcomed. I'm kink-knowledgeable, poly-affirming, LGBTQ-allied and sex worker allied.
I offer hourly sessions as well as a transformational 3-month coaching program. My primary sex therapy modality is Internal Family Systems, which helps clients work from a place of Self Energy (higher consciousness) to heal their "parts" (defense mechanisms) so they can experience greater intimacy.
I specialize in working with committed couples who feel more like roommates than lovers. Through my Intimacy Infusion method, I help clients build emotional closeness and an exciting sex life. Talking about sex can feel intimidating, but I pride myself on being approachable. Visit my website to request your free Intimacy Breakthrough Call.
