Body-Centered Psychotherapy
and Sex Therapy for
Passionate Living 

“There is a vitality, a life force an energy a quickening that is translated through you into action. And because there is only one you in all time, this expression is unique. And if you block it, it will never exist through any other medium.”

– Martha Graham

Unwind your trauma. Your whole life is waiting.

I offer body-centered psychotherapy and sex therapy that thaws out traumatic experiences and frees you to choose how you relate to people.

Could you benefit? Answer these 5 questions and find out.

  • Do you want to feel more ease, aliveness, pleasure  and confidence in your body?
  • Do you want to learn to trust yourself, and respond to what feels right?
  • Have you tried talk therapy and gained insights, but don’t know how to act differently?
  • Have you had some form of trauma that’s left you believing that your body is unsafe and uncomfortable?
  • Do you want to be less reactive in stressful situations?

    • You can overcome:

  • Lack of fulfillment
  • Unhealthy relationships
  • Anxiety and stress
  • Anger and irritability
  • Depression and grief
  • Negative body image
  • Insomnia
  • Post traumatic stress
  • Emotional, physical or sexual trauma

    Sexuality

    During the many years I spent as a sex educator at Good Vibrations, I received not only extensive sex education, but attained a high comfort level of speaking with clients about the mechanics of sexual acts as well as unspoken/unconscious desires.
