Specialized Therapy Services
Among the specialized treatment issues I address in psychotherapy, sex therapy and sex addiction counseling are:
- Includes repetitive destructive patterns of compulsive out of control sexual behavior in spite of negative life consequences
- Sexual addiction with a predominant pattern of problematic compulsive sexual behaviors involving the internet, i.e. internet pornography
- Partners and families of sex addicts can feel devastated by the intrusive negative effects of the addiction. They can become focused on managing the sex addict and the consequences of the addiction to the detriment of their own lives
- Sexual addiction with a predominant pattern of problematic compulsive sexual behaviors involving the internet, i.e. internet pornography
- Includes low or no sexual desire, difficulty with arousal, problems with orgasm, pain with intercourse, erectile problems, early or late ejaculation, negative effects of medication, trauma and/or illness on sexual functioning, differences in couples’ sexual desire, questions about sexual orientation, sexual enhancement
- Sexual and/or Non-Sexual assault/abusive experiences may have happened as a child or adult. Emotional/physical/sexual/verbal/spiritual abuse/ neglect/parental abandonment, domestic violence, rape or incest can have intrusive negative effects on the lives of survivors and their partners and families
- PTSD refers to a range of symptoms that occur in response to traumatic experiences that can result in intrusive negative effects on functioning both in the short and long term
- EMDR is an information processing therapy validated by research to be effective in resolving traumatic memories that impair current functioning
- The sense of self, trust in others and meaning of sex can be negatively effected by sexual and/or non-sexual abuse and trauma adding further complications to sexuality and relationships
I also provide psychotherapy services that are not specifically sexually related including:
- Depression and anxiety disorders can signficantly impair our lives but are highly treatable
- Life stressors, individual and relationship problems can all negatively affect our quality of life
While the specific treatment approaches vary depending on the issues individuals are addressing, the services I provide include:
- Evaluation
- Treatment Planning including goals and methods to achieve goals
- Individual Psychotherapy
- Couples - Marriage Counseling
- Family sessions
- Community Support sessions
- Group Psychotherapy
- Coordination of services with other treatment providers
- Referral as needed
