I specialize in intimacy and romantic relationship concerns including desire, infidelity & sex therapy for individuals or partners with a focus on rebuilding connection, communication, and conflict skills. My treatment approach is based on Emotionally Focused Therapy (EFT). This includes exploring self-talk, relationships, and attachment patterns to help you better understand yourself and achieve your goals. I focus on educating the client, utilizing your strengths and providing techniques to overcome conflicts. My goal is not to diagnose you but to improve your life and your relationships to manage future concerns independently.
I graduated summa cum laude from University of North Carolina, Chapel Hill and with highest honors with a Masters in Counseling. I am an AASECT certified sex therapist with extra training in EFT, Gottman Method, NVC for couples and ENM partners. I have a background in clinical research which assists me in teaching evidence-based techniques to my clients.
As you embark on your journey of self-improvement I would like to offer my services to you as a guide. I am the owner of Affinity Counseling Group, LLC with telehealth availability noon to 8pm on Monday - Thursday. Please contact me today if you would like more information or to make an appointment.
