My Approach to Helping

As a solution-focused therapist, my goal is to help you uncover your true potential and lead a life that is worth celebrating. My core competency is with intimacy issues and intimacy disorders, which can play out as common couplesmarital issues, as well as compulsive behaviors to avoid intimacy. Compulsive sex and Sex addiction would be one of these behaviors that I specialize in.

While we can't change difficult situations of the past, we can work together to better understand and resolve challenges in your life. We will explore long-standing behavior and negative thought patterns that may be holding you back from experiencing a more fulfilling and meaningful life.

If you are looking for extra support and guidance through a challenging situation or you are just ready to move in a new direction in your life, I look forward to working with you to achieve your goals.

More Info About My Practice

I also provide phone and Skype sessions, after an initial face to face session.

I offer group therapy on Thursdays for men who struggle with sex addiction or believe they have issues in this area.
Please call or email me for an individual, couples or family therapy consultation today.

Specific Issue(s) I'm Skilled at Helping With

I have over 10 years of experience in the addiction treatment field as a therapist in South Miami Hospital's ATP. I am a certified sex therapist and I currently am a candidate to become a certified sex addiction therapist.

How Psychotherapy Can Help

I believe human beings need support and validation. Many of us did not receive this as children and are looking in the wrong places for these. Therapy helps individuals look in the right places and also models a supportive and validating environment.

My Role as a Therapist

My role as a therapist primarily is to assist the client thorugh support, guidance and nurturing to uncover, discover and discard areas of their life which has been problematic. I always tell my clients that they have the answers and I will help them find those answers within themselves.
