Couples Therapy
Issues Surrounding Communication & Intimacy
As a psychodynamic couples therapist, I help partners explore the deeper emotional patterns that shape their connection. My work focuses on uncovering the unconscious dynamics that often fuel conflict and distance, especially around issues of emotional and physical intimacy. Together, we slow down, reflect, and make space for vulnerability—so each partner feels seen, heard, and safe. In our work, intimacy isn’t just about closeness, but about deep emotional understanding and the courage to grow together.
Sex Therapy
Issues Surrounding Intimacy
Sex Therapy Rooted in Depth and Understanding
As a licensed marriage and family therapist (LMFT), I offer sex therapy grounded in psychodynamic and object relations theory—approaches that explore how early relationships and unconscious patterns shape our sense of self, our capacity for intimacy, and our experience of desire. I help clients move beyond surface-level fixes by understanding the deeper emotional, relational, and developmental roots of their sexual struggles.
Sex is never just about sex. It is connected to identity, attachment, and the stories we carry about our bodies, our worth, and our capacity for connection. Whether you're navigating desire discrepancies, shame, trauma, or emotional distance, I offer a space where the whole of you is welcomed and explored.
