You deserve pleasure, regardless of what you’ve experienced. I can help you develop confidence in communicating your desires, feelings, and boundaries. You’ll learn to not just survive but thrive after trauma. We’ll work on addressing anxiety and avoidance. Sex therapy can help if you want to work on something and your partner doesn’t. In sex therapy, all partners are welcome. You also can attend regular individual therapy if you want to work on sexual shame, trying to date, or exploring gender or sexuality. Together, we’ll explore your mental health challenges – I will join you in this experience as you navigate troubled waters.
If you’re a member of the queer and/or polyamorous communities, I understand you in ways other therapists may not because I’m part of those communities myself. Sessions are client-led – I act as a guide, but the session is all yours. One of my specialties is mindfulness, a great modality for sex therapy in particular.
Individual or sex therapy in a safe, non-judgmental space could be right for you if you want to be seen for who you are. You don’t need to explain or defend yourself. I’m non-judgmental, empathetic, calming, and real. I’ll be right there guiding you through this process every step of the way.
