Therapists in Dallas, TX

My expertise is sex therapy and couples therapy. I am passionately committed to empowering clients and challenging them to create the satisfying relationships and healthy families that they want. I work with men, women, and couples at different developmental states with equal ease, using my clinical insight, deeply positive attitude, and authentically supportive approach. For years I have taught my graduate students the importance of a genuinely non-judgmental attitude when treating sexual issues. Knowledge of the wide range of sexual expression and variations is important, too. I am pleased to provide this attitude and knowledge to all my clients.

As a sexual health practitioner, I focus on dynamic practical activities, surrogate partner therapy and hands-on work. I specialize in brain-body rehabilitation of the sexual system in a sex-positive environment. My clients are of any sex orientation/identity. My practice is action-based, experiential "Do-Therapy". My clients are seeking solutions for: performance anxiety, premature ejaculation (PE), erectile dysfunction (ED), delayed or lack of ejaculation (DE), low sexual desire, vaginismus, painful sex/pelvic pain, orgasmic disorders, mismatched libidos; sexual inexperience, understanding their sexuality and late life virginity.

It's easy to feel alone with your pain, especially if you don't fit into the neat little boxes that other people expect. Perhaps it's your gender, sexuality or relationship structure (such as consensual non-monogamy) that cause you to feel different. Maybe you're a professional trying to juggle everything and feeling like you're failing on all fronts. Whether as an individual or as part of a relationship, you may need information, emotional support, insight, communication and/or coping skills, and/or just a safe, affirming place to gain some clarity and move forward.

No one gets to adulthood without living through painful experiences. You may be feeling the effects of a single traumatic incident (sexual victimization, a tragic natural disaster, or the sudden loss of a dear one), or you may be struggling with the weight of years of hurtful events. The term "trauma" seems like a buzzword these days, but for some of us, trauma has deeply influenced our lives. When we experience suffering, we can feel like it becomes our identity. But it doesn't have to be that way. Healing from trauma -- single incident or multiple events -- is possible.
