Online Sex & Relationship Therapy

Intimacy should be the place where you finally get to stop performing.

There’s a specific kind of exhaustion that comes from being successful in the world but feeling stuck in your private life. You’ve tried to bridge this gap with logic. You’ve told yourself you should be happy, more interested, or just be able to relax.

But when you lie down at night, your brain starts to hum. You’re supposed to be sleeping, but you’re running checklists in your mind.

Maybe you wonder why your body feels like a stranger, or why the spark you used to take for granted now feels like a memory from a different time. Why does the person sleeping next to you feel so far away?

But you can’t think your way into desire. The same sharp, analytical mind that serves you so well at work can crowd the room when intimacy asks something different of you.

I provide online relationship and sex therapy in California and Oregon for reflective, curious people who are tired of holding it all together and are ready to feel like themselves again.

Start with a brief conversation to see if this feels like the right fit.

Online relationship therapy is for you if you’ve ever experienced…

The Flinch

Your partner reaches for your hand or moves in for a kiss, and your first instinct is to tighten up. It’s not because you don’t love them; it’s because you’re already anticipating the pressure of what comes next.

The Performance

You’re going through the motions of intimacy like it’s a task to be completed. You wonder if they can tell your mind’s actually miles away, worrying about tomorrow’s meeting.

The Vanishing Act

You remember a version of yourself that felt vibrant and connected, but now you feel untethered. Numb. Just... off.

The Silent Room

You’ve become perfect roommates. You’re a great team, but the romantic connection’s been buried under the weight of chores, kids, and career.

When intimacy gets complicated, it’s easy to assume something’s wrong with you, but it usually just means the system you’re living in needs attention and care.
