You desire a more fulfilling relationship or sex life. Maybe it is a challenge to directly express your needs and you get stuck in repeating arguments that go nowhere. Perhaps you struggle with loss of passion or experience sexual anxiety. You may wonder how you can ask your partner for better emotional support, appreciation, alone time or good sex. If you're an expat or immigrant, or if you're in an intercultural relationship, you may run up against cultural differences. If you're in a non-traditional or open relationship, maybe you find it a challenge to navigate different values and relationship styles.

I work well with most people, especially members of sexual, ethnic or other minorities, creative types, people of mixed race or orientation, those who are not easily categorized and don't wish to be.

I enjoy collaborating with people who know what they want and are active participants in therapy. Human sexuality, relationships and social systems fascinate me.
