Therapy in Orlando, FL

Do you feel dull or disconnected? Are you having the same conversations with your partner with no real resolutions. Do you feel like you are missing that connection or spark in your relationship? Do you have a feeling of stress and overwhelm that you can’t seem to adjust or subdue. On the surface, your life is ok, but underneath you feel like you are treading water?

You are ready for a real change…

You’ve tried talking to friends or family and that feels nice in the moment but it doesn’t change anything. You’ve tried to lean into your normal self care that typically helps, but it doesn’t feel like it’s enough. Or maybe there isn’t even time for any of those things. Or maybe you feel in a lull - disconnected, dismissed, and disappointed. You aren’t sure exactly what you need, or if you need a counselor, a coach, a psychiatrist, or a psychologist. But, you know you need something, and you are tired of waiting to fully enjoy your life and relationship.

 Frequently Asked Questions About therapy in Orlando:

    • Counseling: Focuses on specific, short-term issues like stress, life transitions, or relationships. It's more solution-focused and goal-oriented, often provided by counselors with specialized training.

    • Therapy: Deals with deeper, long-term mental health concerns (e.g., depression, trauma). It involves more in-depth exploration of emotions and behaviors and is usually provided by licensed therapists or psychologists with advanced training.

    Both aim to improve well-being, but counseling is typically shorter and more focused, while therapy is often longer and more comprehensive.

  • You might benefit from therapy or counseling if you're experiencing chronic emotional pain, difficulties functioning in daily life, unresolved trauma, relationship issues, unexpected hardships, continual daily chaos, been diagnosed with a mental health disorder, or behaviors you can’t change on your own. Therapy can help with a wide range of issues, from mental health disorders to personal growth and relationship improvement. If you’re unsure, reaching out for a consultation with a therapist can provide clarity and help you assess what support you need.

    Seeking therapy is a sign of strength and taking an important step toward understanding and improving your emotional well-being.

  • Me! Just kidding. In all seriousness, therapy is a very personal thing and you need to make sure your provider is someone you feel comfortable with that can support your needs and uses therapy structures and modalities that serve you and your uniqueness! No one therapist is a good fit for everyone.

  • Sex therapy is a specialized form of therapy that focuses on helping individuals and couples address and improve their sexual health, intimacy, and relationships. It’s a therapeutic approach aimed at resolving sexual issues, enhancing sexual well-being, and promoting better communication around intimacy. Sex therapy is typically provided by licensed therapists or counselors with specific training in sexual health, relationships, and human sexuality.

    Key Aspects of Sex Therapy:

    1. Addressing Sexual Concerns: Sex therapy helps individuals or couples who are experiencing difficulties related to sexual functioning or satisfaction. Common issues include:

      • Low libido (lack of desire)

      • Erectile dysfunction or premature ejaculation

      • Pain during sex (e.g., vaginismus, dyspareunia)

      • Orgasm difficulties (e.g., inability to orgasm or delayed orgasm)

      • Sexual trauma or abuse

      • Infertility-related stress or concerns

      • Lack of communication about sexual needs or preferences

      2. Relationship and Intimacy Issues: Sex therapy can also help address emotional or relational issues that affect intimacy, such as:

      • Poor communication or misunderstandings about sexual needs

      • Emotional disconnect or lack of intimacy in a relationship

      • Conflicts about sexual expectations or desires

      • Rebuilding intimacy after trauma, betrayal, or a breakup

      • Navigating changes in sexuality over time (e.g., due to aging, pregnancy, illness)

      3. Exploring Sexual Identity: Sex therapy can also be a helpful resource for individuals exploring or coming to terms with their sexual identity, including:

      • Understanding sexual orientation or gender identity

      • Exploring sexual preferences or desires

      • Navigating coming out or dealing with societal pressure

      • exploring relationship types like non-monogomy or polyamory

      4. Education and Empowerment: Many sex therapists provide education about sexual health, anatomy, and techniques that can improve sexual well-being. This can include topics like:

      • Enhancing pleasure, intimacy, and communication

      • Understanding sexual anatomy and response cycles

      • Teaching mindfulness and relaxation techniques to improve sexual experiences

      5. Sexual Dysfunction Treatment: In some cases, sex therapy may be used in conjunction with medical treatments for sexual dysfunction. For example, if a medical issue like erectile dysfunction or a hormonal imbalance is present, therapy can help address the emotional and psychological components, while medical treatment addresses the physical cause.

    How Sex Therapy Works:

    • Individual or Couple Sessions: Sex therapy can be done individually or with a partner, depending on the issue. If both partners are involved, therapy will focus on improving communication, emotional intimacy, and resolving sexual issues together.

    • Therapeutic Techniques: A sex therapist might use different therapeutic approaches, such as Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), mindfulness techniques, behavioral interventions, or psychoeducation. The therapist may assign “homework” exercises for couples or individuals to try between sessions to improve their sexual experiences.

    • Safe, Non-Judgmental Space: Therapy is conducted in a confidential and supportive environment, where clients can discuss their sexual concerns openly without fear of judgment.

    When to Consider Sex Therapy:

    You might consider seeking sex therapy if you or your partner are experiencing:

    • Sexual Dysfunction: Persistent issues like erectile dysfunction, low libido, or pain during sex.

    • Emotional Barriers: Feelings of shame, guilt, anxiety, or fear surrounding sex.

    • Relationship Challenges: A lack of sexual intimacy or communication problems around sex.

    • Trauma: A history of sexual abuse, assault, or trauma that’s impacting sexual health.

    • Changes in Sexuality: Major life changes that affect sexual desires or behaviors (e.g., post-pregnancy, aging, health conditions).

    Benefits of Sex Therapy:

    • Improved sexual satisfaction and function.

    • Stronger emotional connection and intimacy in relationships.

    • Enhanced communication about sexual needs and desires.

    • Resolution of psychological or emotional barriers to healthy sexual functioning.

    • Greater understanding of sexual identity and orientation.

  • Although I am not licensed to practice therapy outside of Florida, I do also offer coaching services to anyone in the U.S. Coaching can provide valuable support by helping you set and achieve personal goals, improve self-awareness, and build positive habits, much like therapy.
