Better communication. More intimacy.
Relationships are the foundation of our lives, and yet, so many of us struggle to cultivate meaningful connections. As a relationship and sex therapist, I, M.B. Tabor, understand the complexities and challenges that come with forming and maintaining intimate relationships. I believe that everyone deserves the opportunity to experience joy, pleasure, and connection in their relationships.
As someone who has worked through my own relationship struggles, I understand the importance of empathy, understanding, and effective communication. I've learned that relationships are not just about compatibility or chemistry; they're also about the willingness to grow, learn, and confront our own biases and fears. My approach to therapy is centered around creating a safe, non-judgmental space for individuals and couples to explore their thoughts, feelings, and desires. I believe that by empowering individuals to communicate effectively and express themselves authentically, they can build stronger, more fulfilling relationships.
Our Approach
As a licensed therapist, I have experience working with a diverse range of individuals, including LGBTQIA+ individuals, couples, and polycules. I am committed to providing a safe, affirming space for all clients. I use evidence-based therapeutic approaches, including Emotionally Focused Therapy (EFT), Gottman Method Couples Therapy, and Polyvagal Informed Therapy, to help clients improve their communication skills, navigate conflicts, and cultivate intimacy.
