Jessica is certified in Family Therapy & Couples Therapy; I am a supportive and kink-affirming therapist and I love helping couples (and individuals) learn to effectively communicate, create intimacy and connection, reignite chemistry and provide sex education; because the sexual life you desire doesn't have to be out of reach! I am comfortable hearing about those spicy desires so that I can empower you to share them with your partner(s) in a safe and non-judgmental way. I specialize in couples counseling & sex therapy. There is nothing taboo or off limits to anything you share with me, as your psychological safety is my priority.
I provide individual sex therapy, dating coaching, couples counseling (marriage/ ENM/ partnered) to address issues including communication concerns, anxiety/ insecurity, self esteem & sexual health concerns: delayed ejaculation, premature ejaculation, erectile dysfunction, pelvic floor pain, dyspareunia, & difficulties achieving orgasm/ anorgasmia, and more.
Partnership can be beautiful, but it takes work, and sometimes a refresher course. Everyone defines relationships differently, and there is no one size fits all approach to life, sex, partnership, or therapy. Partnership may not even be your goal. Whatever the goal, I'm here to support you, without judgment. Feel free to schedule a consultation!
