When it comes to personal grooming, many women look for ways to get rid of unwanted body hair, especially in areas such as the bikini line. While conventional methods including waxing, shaving, and laser hair removal offer temporary results, electrolysis has been growing in popularity as a preferred method for bikini line hair removal. But […]
You may have tried to express your emotions to a family member, friend, or partner. However, you felt dismissed or misunderstood. This can be confusing and hurtful. You may have difficulty connecting emotionally. It’s not unusual for men to have trouble in their relationships if they lack empathy. Everyone who feels unheard and every couple […]
I don’t like generalizing, so please take this with a pinch of salt. As I’m a Millennial, I want to give some credence to how I view my generation and the flaws we have with each other. We may or may not want to claim credit, but I believe that my generation has created an […]
I hate men being “macho” all the time. We expect our men to be strong, brave, muscular, wealthy, responsible, romantic, and rich. Personally, there is nothing I find more intimate than my partner expressing his raw emotions. I appreciate his trust in me to reveal his deepest fears and sensitivities without fear of judgment.

I can tell when it is happening. My body tightens, and my heart starts to beat louder. I feel an eruption entering my throat as it slowly increases in my chest. I try to swallow hard to avoid any reaction for fear of what it will cause. As if the swallow triggered a domino-effect, I […]
Why? Who doesn’t have these issues at some point in their lives? These factors are very common.

They often feel that they have had a “privileged” childhood and […]
Many people still have the idea that couples counseling is for couples on the brink of separation, that it is a last resort that only requires a half-hearted effort with little to show for it.

When I say, “I understand it’s difficult for many of us to seek support” (especially when it comes to our relationship insecurities and emotional intelligence), I personally really mean it. I can understand the reasons why counseling is uncomfortable. I also appreciate the perception that counseling represents weakness. Some may be surprised to learn that […]
I hear this complaint often from clients about their sexual intimacy with their long-term partners: “We don’t do as much sex anymore.” We have become complacent. “Sex is becoming more routine.” Our honeymoon phase is over. “I never really desire sex.” Does it sound familiar to you? This is normal. It would be nice to […]
This is something I’ve noticed in my work with couples. It seems to cause conflict, tension, and a disconnection between partners. The dark cloud that creeps slowly into my sessions is usually a result of sensitivity around “commitment.” What is a committed relationship? No matter whether they’ve been dating for a few months or 25 […]
