Therapy Services

50-minute sessions are conducted online via teletherapy and in-person in Silverlake.

Individual Therapy

My clients and I collaborate to identify their goals and to envision the change they want to see. I engage and support my clients through active listening, dialogue, creativity, intuition, and humor in order to meet their short and long-term goals. I strive to create a space that is free of shame and judgment so my clients feel comfortable enough to explore their tender spots and deepest desires for their lives.

Couples Counseling

I join couples and various partnerships (such as co-parents, business partners, friends, and polyamorous partnerships) in understanding long-standing dynamics and stories operative in their relationships. Like my individual work, I provide a place free of judgment where clients can explore issues around communication, boundaries, transitions, sexuality, intimacy, and growing life together. I assist partners in communicating more effectively and listening more actively. I utilize my knowledge of Gottman Method Couples Therapy, Imago, and Emotionally Focused Therapy to conceptualize my work with couples.

Sex Therapy

Sex therapy is a specialized form of talk therapy designed to help individuals and partners address sexual issues and concerns, and enhance sexual, sensual, or erotic pleasure. Though sex therapy is as unique as the people who seek it out, some common areas of exploration include:

  • desire discrepancy in partnerships

  • inhibited sexual desire or sexual pain

  • deepening intimacy and improving communication

  • managing trauma triggers during intimacy

  • difficulty maintaining an erection

  • exploring erotic possibilities during life transitions

  • exploring sexual identity

  • learning more about preferences and fantasies

  • changing sexual roles or scripts

  • reconnecting to sexuality after illness
