Sexual Issues

Sexuality covers a very wide range of behaviors and is strongly influenced by biology and culture. Sexual issues also can be important aspects of other issues like trauma, addiction, couples counseling, anxiety, depression- ad infinitum. For a psychotherapist like me, this means that working with sexual issues is usually complex.

We will work together carefully and respectfully to help you navigate the complexity of your personal sexual issues.  Shame and guilt are not therapy techniques I use. I don’t try to force anyone to be or do anything. Personally, I think that there are many ways humans can express sexuality and, if it is legal and doesn’t hurt anyone, whatever floats your sexual boat is ok by me. If consenting adults want to do what others might call ‘kinky’, I see no harm in it as long as no one is hurt and it is legal.

On the other hand, I will not force you to adopt my views at all. I work hard to help you resolve your sexual issues within the boundaries of  your personal and religious views.

Here are some descriptions of sexual issues I work with

Sexual Abuse Recovery: Getting over getting sexually hurt. Adults and teens. I do not work with children in this area.
