Personal Statement

I am a Licensed Clinical Psychologist in California and Arizona. I am an AASECT Certified Sex Therapist with clinical training in sexology and sex coaching. My specialty is working with individuals and couples around sexual concerns. Common concerns in my practice include low libido, uneven desire, lack of sexual arousal and interest, sexual compulsivity, and dealing with sexual boredom in a relationship.

I use a model that includes a mind-body approach to sexual health. We will use coaching, behavioral tools, and skill building to work towards your sex therapy goals. I also provide a comprehensive adult-sex education that is non-pornographic and based on the latest research and information.
