Hi, I'm Dr. Lori.
I'm glad you're here.
It's time to make real change.
This Isn't Talk Therapy. It's Not Just "Communication."
Most sex advice assumes the problem is what you're doing (or not doing) in bed. But the real issue is usually what's happening in your nervous systems, relationship patterns, and sometimes your physical body—long before you get to the bedroom.
I work with:
Your bodies (somatic tools to help you feel safe and present, medical assessment when physical factors are involved)
Your relationship (addressing pursue-withdraw patterns and stuck dynamics, whether you're working alone or with a partner)
Your actual reality (not some idealized version of desire)
So you can stop performing, stop managing, and start actually wanting each other again.
You want more for your relationship but just don't know how to get it.
You feel awkward and shut down when you try to talk about it.
You're wondering if this is just how it is now
You're avoiding intimacy entirely to avoid the fight
One of you wants sex way more than the other
You're in the right place if...
You are ready for change.
