Sexual Addiction Therapists in Simi Valley, CA

SEXUAL healing: I can listen to any story - those uncomfortable experiences that are hard to talk about, confusion over using sexuality well. The sexual shame. I have heard it before. Come tell me what you haven't been able to say. It's confidential. I help with abuse history, sexual addiction, and issues of couples. I have written books on how to heal sexuality individually or as a couple. Also smart and GIFTED people, understanding how it makes you feel separate, sometimes isolated. This could be because you really are different. I offer group therapy for those going through or have gone through ALPHA Theta and Neurofeedback.

Maybe you are feeling tangled up in unwanted habits, behaviors, or ways of thinking. You might be feeling unsatisfied with the way these things seem to have shaped your life. The weight of carrying this thing around has become exhausting and you are looking for a place to set it down, leave it, and move on with your life free from this burden.

My vision of the counseling process comes from a belief that all of us, at times, encounter experiences that we are unable to handle on our own. These brief times are but a small moment in the course of our existence. How we handle these small moments can make a big difference in the direction and quality of our lives. This, to me, is the essence of being a therapist. My goal is to help others learn, grow and develop the tools and skills necessary to triumph during these difficult times.
