Welcome to Health and Sex Talk with Sherri--An Integrative Health and Sexual blog!

Would you like to join me for a little story and some sexual healing?
​
My story is this: I am opening this space (in my first-everblog) between the worlds of medicine, healing and sexuality to build knowledgeand a place of hopeful growth.  I blendtechniques for the body, mind and heart to reach a true place of healing in mypractice as a Nurse Practitioner and Sexual Therapist.

As a Family Nurse Practitioner for many years, I’ve watched ascurrent treatments for diseases, disorders, and dysfunction failed to help my patients.Each patient I see isn’t simply a set of symptoms, but a whole person with astory to tell.

It seemed to me that the medical approach I worked within didn’thelp patients to get “better.”  So afteryears of professional frustration, I went back to school to find a way tocultivate a sense of well-being for my clients physically, emotionally,mentally, and spiritually in the areas of health and sexuality. My education asa Nurse Practitioner, then becoming a Fellow of Integrative Medicine andfinally in Sex Therapy guides my practice to evolving a treatment planencompassing the complete person; body, mind and spirit.

One of the most attractive aspects of Integrative Medicine isthe perspective of each patient as a dynamic energy body that needs supportrather than being “fixed” or that something is “wrong.” Therefore, approachingthe aging process from the view of a dynamic energy system, healing andwell-being emerge.

As I began utilizing an Integrative approach with patients,I’ve witnessed transformations in their health and sexuality at much greaterlevels. Patients truly appreciated alternative treatments and even request it! Focusingon Integrative health and sexuality is a passion and calling that has broughtme to a cutting-edge practice and this new space for sharing!
