Dating, maintaining healthy relationships, and keeping it spicy in the bedroom can be challenging and feel overwhelming. Whether you are single or in a relationship, couple’s therapy can help.

My work with Couples focuses on issues of communication, intimacy, infidelity, trust and sexual difficulties. If you are single, and are looking to work through past or prospective relationships, we can work on helping identify the factors getting in the way of finding, or maintaining healthy relationships.

Experiencing a lack of sexual fulfillment during any stage your life can feel isolating, challenging and overwhelming. Whether you are single, dating, in an open relationship, or in a committed relationship. When “sex isn’t working”, it feels uncomfortable and frustrating, and can make you feel like there is something wrong with you.

We can work together in Sex Therapy, as an Individual or as a Couple to help you achieve the positive sex goals you want and deserve. I'm an English/Spanish speaking Psychotherapist.

Almost everyone experiences some level of depression or anxiety during their lifetime. Sometimes these conditions prompt us to get care. They inspire us to work collaboratively with someone so that we can

navigate difficult times. Psychotherapy can help us make decisions, process relationships, endure

emotional pain and make real growth. I specialize in working collaboratively with adults who

experience depression and anxiety or are looking to work through stuck points in their lives.
