Sex & Relationship Counseling for Individuals and Couples 

Pleasure and Intimacy matter.

Whether you're working through this alone or with your partner, I help you get out of the patterns that keep sex feeling like a chore, a fight, or something you're failing at—and into the kind of intimacy that feels alive.

What brings people to sex counseling

People come to me when:

  • Their desire has disappeared and they don't know why
  • Sex has become painful or anxiety-inducing
  • They're stuck in pursue-withdraw patterns with their partner
  • One person wants sex constantly, the other never does
  • They feel shame or disconnection around their sexuality
  • Past trauma is affecting their present intimacy
  • Their body doesn't respond the way it used to
  • They're exhausted from fighting about frequency

If any of this resonates, you're not alone. And you're definitely not broken.


Enough is enough.

Sex problems need specific sex solutions

If you recognize yourself in any of those struggles, here's what you need to know: generic advice won't fix this.

You need someone who specializes in how nervous systems affect desire, how bodies respond to trauma, and how relationship patterns keep you stuck.
I work with:

  • Your Body - Somatic tools to help you feel safe and present when your nervous system is stuck in shutdown or hypervigilance
  • Your Relationship - Addressing pursue-withdraw cycles and the dynamics that keep you managing each other instead of meeting each other
  • Your Reality - What actually works for your bodies, schedules, and histories—not some idealized version of desire
  • My training: AASECT Certified Sex Counselor, Doctor of Nursing Practice (DNP), Somatic Experiencing Practitioner (SEP), Certified Relational Life Therapy Coach

The goal isn't to perform better. It's to feel present, connected, and alive in your sexuality.

Testimonials

- CLIENT

I have seen many doctors and therapists in my adult life. Although they have been helpful, I’ve always felt as if I wasn’t making as much progress as I hoped and that something was missing from my care. Lori has been the first person able to connect the dots between my physical and emotional symptoms to get to the root of what’s going on. She really listens to what I’m saying and doesn’t brush anything aside. She has helped me learn how to listen to myself and reconnect with my body when I thought that was no longer possible. She encourages curiosity and compassion instead of rigid all or nothing ways of thinking and I can’t thank her enough for the help she has given me.

- CLIENT

Lori has been instrumental in helping us add life back into our sex life. We’ve been together for 20 years, but sex was still hard for us to talk about — and our intimacy was paying the price. Lori met us where we were, and guided us to a more open (and pleasurable!) place. She helped us approach our thoughts, our feelings and our relationship with curiosity in place of judgement. Everyone should have a Lori.

Thank you! I can't explain how great it feels to have someone work with me and genuinely seem to care and feel you have my best interest at heart. It's been life changing to have someone as part of my health care team who is so wonderful. When I was recommended to see you, I was told you were a 'magical hormone understanding unicorn," and I feel like that description fits perfectly!
