I am so happy that you are interested in working with me.
Some common questions I am often asked, include:
How is working with a clinical sexologist different from working with a therapist?
It is important to understand that working with a clinical sexologist is not the same thing as therapy. As a clinical sexologist, I work in a coaching modality that is present/future based and seek solutions to removing obstacles that prevent people from achieving their goals. A clinical sexologist does not provide mental health services. My expertise is focused on human sexuality, romantic love, and relationship satisfaction. I do not treat depression, anxiety, or other mental health illnesses. If you need a referral to a therapist, I am happy to provide this to you.
I use a short-term, structured, and solution-focused approach designed to meet you exactly where you are today.

Is our work together private and confidential?

Can you please explain email policies and procedures?
-
I take our electronic communications seriously
-
No one other than myself, is allowed to read my emails, or given access to my electronic sites
-
I generally respond to emails within 24-hours. If you do not receive a response within 48-hours, please assume I did not receive the first email and resend the email
-
Email content should be limited to communications about scheduling.I recommend sensitive issues are not addressed in email form, due to potential breaches of privacy and security.If e-sessions are chosen, I will send communications thru an encrypted email address which decreases, but does not eliminate,the risk for security breaches
It is always an honor and privilege to be a co-traveler with my clients.
