Nobody comes to therapy for fun. If you're like my typical client, you're sick of feeling ashamed and disconnected. You've likely tried to 'figure it out' on your own, but something deeper still isn’t resolving. You are tired of secrecy, tension, and pain. It's time for real, lasting change. You want honesty, healing, and integration. You want to feel safe in your own body, experience intimacy without shame, or rebuild trust after rupture. You want to stop hiding parts of yourself, feel close to your partner(s) again, or have a healthier relationship with sex. You want to reclaim your relationship with all forms of intimacy.
I specialize in sexual trauma recovery, sexual reintegration therapy, sex therapy, betrayal trauma, neurodiverse and/or queer relationships, and compulsive sexual behavior. I work with both individuals and romantic relationships, and will see anywhere from 2-4 interconnected partners in addition to other non-monogamous relationship structures.
Honestly, profiles like this aren't my forte, as I'm more of a people-person. If you want to learn more about me before making a decision to schedule a first session, please check out my website and/or reach out for a free consultation to get a better feel for who I am and how I operate. Take care on your journey into reclaiming intimacy! -Katie
