Sex Therapists in Wenatchee, WA

I am a Certified Sex Therapist. I offer a unique space for motivated, high functioning adults/couples who want to step outside their comfort zone, deepen their self-awareness, and live a more satisfied and balanced life. My therapeutic approach comes from a sex therapy lens and my office is a place to talk openly about sex and sexuality. My goal is to foster an environment where curiosity and self-reflection can flourish. I use an integrated approach and believe in the connection between the body and the mind.

Relationships are what bring us joy in our lives, but sometimes despite our best efforts we come upon a stumbling block. We find ourselves struggling or unable to connect to those we love and sometimes even to ourselves. Maybe issues from past relationships get in the way, maybe there is a trauma to the relationship (such as illness, job loss, or simply entering a new stage of life such as parenthood or midlife). There may have been an infidelity, loss of job, or emotional issues such as depression / anxiety. Often we just feel a lack of connection we once had.

I'm naturally interested in how people experience their lives and how they achieve self fulfilment and secure happy family and personal relationships. What I do is help people realize their goals by finding out what they want and need out of life, and then work with them to solve the parts of their lives that cause them frustration or pain. My approach helps individuals and couples problem solve and identify what is blocking them from creating a great relationship or what is stopping them from moving on with their lives after a crisis, loss or divorce.

Come as you are... Leave Different. It is a privilege to come alongside individuals as they challenge themselves to overcome anxieties, self-doubt and old habits that are limiting and discouraging. Are you stuck in entrenched patterns of thinking or behaviors? As a cognitive behavioral clinical psychologist, I offer a wide array of proven Tools for Change. For both individuals and couples, I will equip, encourage and support. Together, we will focus on challenging unhelpful habits; creating forward motion into increased integrity and vibrancy. You have the capacity the change stagnant behaviors and patterns of thinking. I can help.

I'm a solution-focused, results-oriented counselor with a passion for helping people in the most efficient yet comprehensive manner possible. My clients and I identify opportunities for growth in all three aspects of mental health: behaviors, thoughts and emotions. I then suggest evidence-based treatment methods to match our specified goals. This often includes lifestyle change, healthy habit formation and cognitive therapy. Most often, I work with clients' present-day experiences, with less focus on the past. Many of my clients tell me that traditional talk therapy has not worked for them, and they want to try something different.

We often experience seasons where we struggle to find hope - hope in relationship, hope through depression or anxiety, hope beyond current circumstances. Is there hope despite any circumstance? We long for a change. We long for someone to hear our hearts, our stories, our circumstances and say “yes, there is hope.” My goal is to help renew that hope in you. I want to walk alongside you, look at all that you are facing and overwhelmed with, and find that spark of hope and foster it.
