You will find gentle care combined with strong direction for couples in crisis in my office. My training in marriage and family therapy, sex therapy, and addictionology and over two decades of experience provide the background to help you with your marriage and sexual issues. The majority of clients in my practice are couples rebuilding emotional and physical intimacy after an affair or sexual addiction. Couples with other sexual issues (especially sexual desire, painful sex, inability to orgasm or unconsummated marriages), couples falling out of love, and couples struggling to communicate also find help in my office.
My practice is predominantly clients who have been referred by previous clients. Clients describe me as soft and caring but directive in my approach. I tend to use a fair amount of homework believing real change happens outside of the therapy hour.
I have been trained as a pastor and bring the richness of this background to my practice. Christian and non-Christian clients appreciate my respect for them in weaving in this training. Please visit my website at IntimateMarriage.org for more information and to view videos of me answering questions.
