Sex Therapists in V6C

If you are searching for a respectful and non-judgmental couples therapist, chances are you've been struggling for a while, just hoping things will get better on their own. My work is focused on couples conflict, relational trauma, and sexuality concerns. Whether the problem is infidelity or another traumatic event, lack of interest in sex, drifting apart in your relationship, or constant bickering and rehashing old arguments, the problems facing you as a couple can be overwhelming. It's natural to feel vulnerable and at the same time yearn for a safe place to talk it out with someone who can help.

I understand how problems with sex and sexuality can have an immense negative impact on your quality of life, including your relationships, your mental health, and the way that you see yourself. But these problems are not insurmountable; treatment can be very effective. I'm a registered psychologist, and specialize in treating sexual problems and disorders. My treatment methods (CBT and ACT) are based on extensive research and clinical evidence demonstrating their effectiveness. Most importantly, my clients tell me that I put them at ease, quickly earn their trust, and make it comfortable to talk about their most intimate problems.

We are all deserving and capable of enjoying fulfilling romantic and sexual relationships. Connection is the key to a life lived full. Connection to yourself first and foremost— awareness of your emotions, body sensations, values, and needs. Believing fully in your inherent worth, flaws and all. Connecting to others through a practice of empathy, vulnerability, and reliability is how we create strong relationships to our loved ones and the world around us.

At Allura, we know and understand that sexuality is one of the most fun but complicated parts of humanity, while also one of the hardest to find a safe and non-judgmental space to speak openly about. Do you feel overwhelmed when you think about your sexuality, sex life, or relationship? Do you wish for more connection and excitement with your partner? Do you sometimes feel stress or anxiety fill your life? We can help with that. Our clients are professionals, parents, sometimes monogamous and sometimes polyamorous, LGBTQ+ - but they all share one thing in common: they are struggling with their sexuality in some way.

My ideal client is sex positive and looking to explore themselves in a deep and meaningful way. They are go-getters who often find boundaries challenging. Their needs are to find a therapist that is compassionate, playful, and focused on long term relational goals. My dream client is creative, open minded, and ready to sit with the darkest parts of themselves.

My relational and feminist approach to counselling emphasizes the mutual formation of people through their relationships. With it, I support you in finding your own self in the tangle of relations with friends, family, lovers, neighbours, co-workers, and others. Although we cannot immediately change the social structures around us, the therapeutic process helps you to navigate them with greater confidence, compassion, and care.
