Help with Sexual Issues

• Do you and your partner argue about sex?
• Do you have orgasms less frequently than you’d like?
• Do you avoid sex because it will probably turn out to be a negative experience?
• Is your use of pornography, or your partner’s, interfering with the frequency or quality of sex?
• Has sex become routine, boring or unsatisfying?

• Has there been infidelity, physically and/or emotionally, in your relationship?


I am a Board Certified Sex Therapist and can help you have the sex life you desire - help you change negative thoughts about sex - help you reverse fears and unwanted patterns that have led to relationship problems, physical dysfunction, and
poor or no sex. Whatever your vision of a healthy, satisfying sex life, as a team we will determine the blocks to achieving this, and through a wide variety of techniques and interventions we will get your sex life functioning as you’d like it - for yourself, for your partner, for your relationship.

I specialize in treating:

Sex Addiction and/or Porn Addiction?

If you’re in Orange County or neighboring areas and are concerned about sex or porn addiction, call me. I can help you make sense of your behaviors and your feelings about them, and get you on the road to change. If you've been trying to control your activities yourself and repeatedly fail, you need to talk to someone with extensive experience treating addictions, as well as a Certified Sex Therapist who understands the dynamics of sexuality – our past experiences, our family and cultural messages, significance of sexual abuse and trauma, and the shame involved with out-of-control sexual behavior. Stop putting this off – as difficult as it may be to make the call, the alternative is to stay mired in activities that affect many areas of your life in a negative and self-destructive way. Do something positive and healthy for yourself today, break the cycle - call me.

I Welcome Diversity!

I am proud to live in a country with so much diversity and acceptance of those different than ourselves. I both enjoy and have had much success working with individuals and couples of many different ethnicities, religions, sexual orientations and identities. I welcome all into my practice and always strive to learn from my clients and help them in ways in which they are most comfortable. I don't judge and I believe that our personal/cultural beliefs and viewpoints are our strengths, not our weaknesses.
