My Work as a Sex Therapist in Miami
I’m a Sexologist and Licensed Psychotherapist who helps people fall in love with their relationship and live their desired sex life.
​
I help individuals and couples create healthy relationships and overcomes sexual challenges.
​
Sexual challenges are one of the first signs that something is wrong and unfulfilling in your life. It is my job to help you fall in love with yourself and experience the sex life you want.
​
Through my education, exploration, and my expert therapeutic techniques, I will help you overcome your relationship issues or sexual challenge.
​
I work with both individuals and couples.
​
Sometimes we need more than talk therapy. Sometimes our core negative thoughts, fears, or emotional challenges seem to never fade. Hypnotherapy can help.
​
I often times integrate hypnotherapy along with talk therapy to work through deep rooted challenges and self-defeating beliefs.
​
My Academic Journey to Becoming a Doctor of Sexology
I attended graduate school at the University of Miami and earned my Master’s degree in Mental Health Counseling. Go Canes!
​
I continued my education and earned my Doctorate of Sexology to help individuals and couples live their best sex life, improve emotional and physical intimacy with their partner, and of course, improve communication skills.
I continued my training by completing the two-year Psychodynamic Psychotherapy Course at the Florida Psychoanalytic Center and The Gottman Method training to enhance my work with couples.
​
I am a proud and excited co-founder of Miami Mastermind, Miami’s first in-person networking group that bridges the isolation gap between licensed mental health professionals. We are a peer supervision and networking group.
My Advanced Training in Mental Health Counseling
​
Health, Movement, Wellbeing
​
I earned my Masters of Science in Mental Health Counseling at the University of Miami. My graduate training focuses on anxiety, relationships, and substance use. After graduation, I earned my 2,000+ supervised internship hours at a group therapy practice in Brickell. In 2017, I became a Licensed Mental Health Counselor and subsequently founded Insight Counseling Center.
​
I am currently enrolled in the Ph.D. program at the International Institute of Clinical Sexology and am eager to help individuals and couples work through intimacy issues and sexual challenges. My education is focused on treating sexual dysfunction, intimacy issues, sexual abuse, medical issues affecting sexual functioning, gender and orientation, alternative lifestyles, and a year of dissertation research.
Relationships are a common source of pain. I completed the Gottman Method - Couples Therapy -Level 1 to help couples, or individuals manage their conflicts, develop communication skills, and deepen their intimacy. I also educate my clients in session on healthy communication strategies and offer them tools that help couples successfully manage conflict.
I completed the two-year course at the Florida Psychoanalytic Center, in Psychodynamic Psychotherapy. With this training, I am able to help my clients learn how to critically understand their thoughts and behaviors. In examining what lies beneath the surface of human behavior, psychoanalysis teaches us about the unconscious psychological forces that are outside of our everyday awareness. I work with my clients on gaining awareness in their everyday behaviors and, how to work toward their desired goals.
