To be human is to be sexual. Sexuality is an integral part of human development.
I began my journey as an LICSW therapist in 2003. In 2010, I started to specialize in Couples and Family Therapy and in 2019, I became an AASECT Certified Sex Therapist (CST). I noticed a need for clients to achieve life satisfaction and happiness through connection with their partners and family members. Exploring healthy sexuality, intimacy and passion are key factors in individual and relational growth.
Sex and Couples Therapy addresses a myriad of problems including substance abuse, trauma, relational anxiety, individual anxiety, depression, differences in desire levels, sex addiction, infidelity, disabilities, illness, sexual orientation and who we love, gender identity and more; even problems related to privilege. These are among the critical topics that, by and large, are missing from our national conversation. Sex, Couples and Family Therapy is the way to address them.
“ ***** Great Guidance. We had 11 sessions with
Donna, and we’re so deeply grateful for each
one. Going in, we weren’t entirely sure what to
expect, but Donna provided thoughtful guidance
that helped us understand each other on a much
deeper level. She shed light on the different
perspectives and expectations we each had
around intimacy—things we didn’t fully realize
ourselves. Thanks to her, we feel closer and
more connected, both emotionally and physically.
We’ve grown so much as a couple, and we’re
excited to keep applying what we’ve learned
in our relationship. Honestly, some of what she
helped us uncover may seem obvious in
hindsight, and we thought we were already great
at communicating, but Donna showed us how
much more there was to discover
about each other. Highly recommend!”
