Maybe sex and intimacy have started to feel harder, quieter, or more distant than you expected. Whether past sexual trauma, chronic pain, sensory sensitivities, becoming parents, or struggles with body image are getting in the way of a fulfilling sexual relationship, you are not alone, and you do not have to navigate it alone. Sex-focused couples therapy offers a supportive space to explore the emotional, physical, and relational dynamics of intimacy. I understand how vulnerable conversations around your body and your sexuality can be, and I will always move at a pace that feels safe and respectful for both of you.

Our work may include somatic approaches and touch-focused homework practices that help you reconnect with your body, increase physical awareness, and cultivate safety and pleasure in your intimate connection. We will work to create a deeper sense of trust in your relationship by developing tools for open and compassionate communication.

You likely remember a time when you felt emotionally and physically connected to your partner, and it’s normal for stress, trauma, and life transitions to interrupt that closeness. You deserve a long-term, satisfying, and fulfilling intimate relationship. I’m here to help you reconnect and rediscover what intimacy can feel like together.

Our bodies are always evolving through illness, pain, aging, pregnancy, and more. These changes can stir up a complex range of emotions such as grief, frustration, fear, shame, or a deep sense of disconnection. Whether you're navigating a new diagnosis, living with chronic pain, adjusting to pregnancy, or coming to terms with the realities of aging, therapy can be a place to make sense of it all—emotionally, physically, and relationally.

In our work together, we will use a somatic approach that involves paying attention not just to your thoughts, but also to the signals and sensations of your body. You may be used to pushing through discomfort or disconnecting from your physical experience entirely. Therapy can help you begin to gently notice and respond to what your body is telling you. Together, we will explore how to cultivate safety and compassion within your body, regulate your nervous system, and build a more trusting relationship with yourself over time.

You do not have to go through this alone. Your body may be changing, but your capacity for healing, connection, and wholeness remains fully alive.

Is the pressure to achieve the “thin ideal” taking over your thoughts and interfering with your life? In a world that constantly bombards us with celebrity transformations, anti-aging products, weight loss fads, and diet culture disguised as wellness, it’s easy to lose sight of the truth: your body is the least interesting and least important thing about you.

The pursuit of a certain body size can leave you feeling anxious around food, disconnected from yourself, and stuck in a cycle of self-criticism. But what if you could step out of that cycle? Peace with your body is possible. You can move toward less shame, fewer obsessive thoughts, and more freedom, calm, and even joy.

If you’re curious about what life could look like when you're no longer preoccupied with food or your body, and you’re ready to explore what has been waiting beneath the surface, I would be honored to support you in this work.
