Hi, I'm Lakshmi and I'm a bisexual, kinky, non-monogamous, cisgender South Indian immigrant woman. I'm an EMDR sex and trauma, couples and women's therapist, who also works from intuitive and somatic lenses. As a member of the LGBTQ+ and BIPOC communities, I hope to support you on your journey by creating an atmosphere of warmth, safety, and curiosity. I work with individuals, couples/partnerships, and families of every ability, age, gender, national origin, race/ethnicity, religious affiliation, and sexual orientation. My practice is grounded in feminist, multicultural, anti-oppression, and anti-capitalist frameworks.
I specialize in a whole bunch of things. Exploring relational concerns, sex/intimacy, sexuality, alternative relationships (open/poly/non-monogamous), kink/BDSM, sexual shame, sexual abuse/assault is my primary specialty, with individuals or couples/partnerships. I also specialize in trauma therapy and am trained in trauma treatments like EMDR.
Finally, I specialize in working with women trying to improve the quality of their life. If my bio resonates with you, please reach out to schedule a free consultation session for us to talk and see if we are a good fit. I offer sessions online and have openings most weekdays.
