Private Practice

My sexuality consultations do not include nudity nor does it include sexual contact with my client.

Often people feel too embarrassed, uncomfortable or rushed to ask their therapist or physician/gynecologist/urologist questions pertaining specifically to sexuality. As a board certified sexologist I specialize in answering questions related to sexual expression, behaviors and other sensitive issues. My non-judgmental style allows people to feel comfortable discussing any topics related to sexuality.

Typical questions:

• What can I do to get my partner more interested in having sex?

• I’ve lost my sexual desire. Could you help me figure out the best remedy to get it back?

• Where do people find the time or energy for sex? We have kids, we both work, and lots of stress. Do you have any suggestions?

• I am dating again and find there are several sexuality issues that concern me. My girlfriends talk about their pain during intercourse and the men being embarrassed about their sexual performance. Could you show me the best way to deal with these potential issues?

• We have a typical marriage in all respects except we rarely have sex. Our lovemaking has gotten rather boring. Can you help us create the passion we had when we were first together?

• I don’t think I’ve ever had an orgasm, and I’m already an adult women. Is there something wrong with me? How would I know if I had an orgasm? Could you help me?

• My husband is starting to have problems getting an erection, but his doctor said he cannot take any of the medications that might remedy this problem. What can we do?

• I would like to experiment with role playing. I would like to persuade my partner to do this but I’m afraid he/she will think badly of me. What can I do?

• My husband won’t touch me, because he knows I have pain every time we have intercourse. How can we become more erotically intimate while I’m being treated for my medical issues?

• My partner has just been diagnosed with prostate cancer, how will this effect our sex together?

• I bought some sex toys to surprise my husband and he responded badly. He felt that I thought his penis was lacking. I tried to explain otherwise but he was too upset to listen. How can I introduce them to our bed without threatening him?

• I have a personal sex story I would like to share, but I’m too afraid to tell anyone else because they’ll think I’m weird. Would you listen?

I maintain a consulting practice in Philadelphia, specializing in short-term intensive work on sexuality issues. I consult with individuals and couples in person, by phone and on-line, where we set the goal for one particular concern or problem. This may consist of a brief series of sessions, involving assignments and reflection.

As a team, you and I will discuss the best possible solution to deal with the issue you bring to the sessions. The process I use is goal oriented, dealing with your present circumstances and working towards rapid results. Should it be necessary, I have a network of health care professionals to help address your needs.

Prior to your session, you will provide a brief description of the issue, concern or problem that you wish to address via email or quick telephone call. This will give me the opportunity to decide whether my methods are the best ones to meet your needs.

If I feel that my practice can help you meet your goals, you will be sent an invoice to be paid in advance prior to session. This could be done via a check in the mail or credit card.
