"Each scene has its own music, and the music is created for the scene, woven to it in ways we do not understand. No matter how much we may love the melody of the bygone day or imagine the song of a future one, we must dance with the music of today or we will always be out of step, stumbling around in something that doesn't suit the moment." - Lisa Wingate
Welcome to Intimate Inquiries

Welcome to Intimate Inquiries, a place for growth, self-discovery, healing, and support.
There are two offices conveniently located in North East Boulder and Cherry Creek Denver, Colorado. I also offer video coaching sessions. If commuting to my office is out of reach or impossible due to a global pandemic (Oy vey!), personal preference, or other accessibility issues, then I am happy and able to provide my services via Telehealth which includes phone or a secure video platform. Call for scheduling or finding out more about this convenient, comfortable and safe option. Intimate Inquiries is here to help you cultivate, enhance and nurture love, communication, and connectivity with yourself and others. Through illuminating unhelpful patterns with awareness and gently challenging them with new tools, therapy can help you live a more satisfying and intentional life. Through building connection, acceptance, and appreciation for yourself and others, therapy can also help you develop more balanced and satisfying relationships. Intimate Inquiries specificaly focuses on relationship and sex therapy for individuals, couples, and families. Sex and Relationship therapy can encompass many issues that range from body image, sexual functioning, intimacy and pleasure, communication, trauma, stress, and health. Many times sexual issues are the presenting issue that a person, couple or family bring into therapy, but we work on much more under the surface as well. Issues can include identity, confidence, loneliness, communication, adjusting to major life changes, depression or anxiety, mental health imbalances, disability, infertility, being new parents, infidelity and much more. Intimate Inquires provides:
I believe that nurturing a healthy, balanced, and satisfying relationship with oneself and others can promote a meaningful life. Learning how to navigate the unexpected obstacles, past traumas, and life's constant inevitable change can be a daunting task that leaves many hopeless and struggling. Intimate Inquiries was founded in order to help those who are suffering find joy, meaning, desire, intimacy, and health in their lives and their relationships. I enjoy helping people thrive and rediscover their lust for life's experiences. |
I am a licensed clinical social worker (LCSW) and AASECT certified sex therapist (CST). I specialize in sex therapy for individuals, couples, and families.
I enjoy helping my clients navigate difficult topics, especially related to sex and intimacy. I help my clients discuss complex issues with more ease and confidence. I aim to create space and opportunities for families and couples to have more open, honest conversations regarding sex, love, gender and health. My approach is strength-based and rooted in empathy, humor, and flexibility to cater to each individuals specific needs. It is my privilege to work with people who have the courage to show up, be vulnerable, and commit to their health and happiness. With some hard work and creativity from both you and myself, I believe that together we can create lasting positive change in your relationships, yourself, and your unique sexual identity. |
