Profession/Job Title:

AASECT Certified Sex Therapist Licensed Psychotherapist Addiction Specialist Adjunct Faculty - Alliant University  

Areas of Specialization:

As a Certified Sex Therapist I work with individuals and couples who are either having particular problems in their sexual functioning or who are unsatisfied with the quality and/or frequency of their sexual activity. I help clients with a wide range of sexual concerns, with special skills in couples issues, low sexual desire, erectile dysfunction, rapid or delayed/inhibited ejaculation, women's anorgasmia and sexual inhibition, sexual trauma, adults molested as children, and sexual compulsions/addictions.

Billing Information:

Fee is payable at the time of service. I can provide a superbill for patients who wish to seek reimbursement from their insurance providers.  

Philosophy:

I believe that sexuality is a primary component of human fulfillment and overall happiness and should not be ignored or rooted in fear or shame. I know that virtually all sexual problems and issues have solutions and can be resolved. My philosophy is that each individual already has the resources to overcome these issues, but may need help from a trained, empathetic and non-judgmental professional to achieve success. To facilitate this growth, I create a safe, warm, positive environment to provide the appropriate therapeutic services for individual and couples who have the courage to ask for help with their problems.
