My work with clients is incredibly meaningful for me. I feel honored to be invited to walk alongside clients in their sex lives and relationship(s). I bring my authentic and (what I think is) humorous self into each session with an open, affirming, and of course, non-judgmental approach. Together we create, a space that is, what I like to call, comfortably uncomfortable. This means feeling comfortable enough to be uncomfortable, vulnerable, real, and authentically you! Investing in yourself and your relationship can feel scary and overwhelming, but also hopeful and empowering!If you're ready to learn how to enhance your pleasure and sex life, communicate more effectively and deepen your connection- let's do it!
