Alana is a psychosexual therapist specialising in holistic, trauma informed care to support both individuals and partnerships with their sexological needs. Some of these needs may include issues with sexual difficulties, gender or sexual identity, intimacy, pleasure, mismatched libido, desire discrepancies, intimate pain and other relationship struggles just to name a few. Down to earth and non-judgemental, she helps her clients break down barriers and find the language to communicate their lived experiences with more clarity. All gendered, sexual, racial and cultural identities are welcome and will be respected here.
Working with a Gestalt framework, Alana focuses on a here and now embodied approach that cultivates the connection between the mind-body. By reconnecting with your body's responses to certain behavioural or environmental factors, together we can begin to understand and work with the root of the issue.
You have a human right to sexual wellbeing and it deserves to be a priority in your life. Please feel free to send me an email or book direct via my website under the services tab (www.bareintimacy.com.au). All you have to do is reach out and I will reach back. Please give me 24h to respond to emails and check your 'junk box' for a reply.
