What I Offer As a Counselor

To me, psychotherapy is about supporting people to assume full control of their own lives with power, compassion, and joy.

I am very accepting of all sorts of people and lifestyles.  No matter what lifestyles, interests, or problems my clients have, I strive to provide an emotionally safe, respectful, and caring environment for my clients to work on themselves.  

I act as a mirror, not a judge, providing you with a reflection of yourself that you might not have seen before,  based upon what you express during our sessions.  With that reflection and my guidance and support, you have the opportunity to develop the inner and outer skills to reach your goals. 

Some examples of issues for which I can be of help:

  • Life stressors
  • Depression
  • Anxiety
  • Relationship difficulty
  • Low self-esteem
  • Grief/mourning/loss
  • Open relationships such as polyamory and swinging
  • Power-based relationships also called bdsm, D/s, M/s
  • Kink and fetish
  • Transgendered or transsexual
  • Bisexual
  • Asexual

I also provide Sex Therapy and am a Sex Positive Therapist:

  • Desire problems which typically mean that one partner wants less sex than the other does and it has become a problem in the relationship
  • Sexual function problems such as erectile difficulty, ejaculatory problems, problems with orgasm, painful intercourse
  • Sex education: sometimes it's a matter of learning some truths and unlearning some myths about sex, sexuality, and relationships

 

I am as thankful to my clients for trusting me and allowing me to witness their fears, hopes, sadness, joy, shame, pride, confusion, and clarity as my clients are for my support, empathy, guidance, acceptance, and assistance.
