When sexual issues are a concern, who do you turn to? It could be that you are suffering from a lack of intimacy in your relationship, an inability to experience pleasure or orgasm, or maybe you are wondering if your desires and fantasies are "normal." Have you sought out help only to be told "just live with it" or "sex isn't that important, anyway"? Or maybe your concerns have just been ignored. Do you want real solutions to your sexual concerns? I can help. I have extensive education and a passion for helping couples/individuals explore and regain pleasure.

I focus on kink, BDSM, ENM, LGBTQ+ identities, and sexual trauma recovery.
Discussing sex and sexuality can feel awkward or challenging. Many of us are taught to feel shameful about our bodies, the ways we love, and the ways in which we experience pleasure. I'm here to help you walk away from these old stories. Whether you hope to rebuild trust, communication, intimacy, or joy with yourself or others, my goal is to support your growth. I offer individual and partnered sessions - romantic, platonic, play, lifestyle, D/s, or any other meaningful partner.

Numerous studies have shown that one of the most important factors in helping people in therapy achieve change is a strong and trusting relationship with their therapist.

Sex-Positive, Kink Allied Therapists

Why might an individual want to see a sex-positive, kink-allied therapist?

A sex-positive or kinky individual may want to see a sex-positive, kink-allied therapist because the client may feel safer and more supported discussing their experiences and challenges. A therapist who identifies as kink-friendly will have experience with clients having diverse sexual preferences and will likely be nonjudgmental and supportive about issues brought to the table. It is important to note that sex-positive, kink-allied individuals may find equal success with therapists who do not have such specialized knowledge and background. The most important factor in the success of therapy is for the client and practitioner to form a strong, trusting bond.

Do therapists have special training to gain expertise in sex-positive, kink-allied treatment?

Generally, no. There are limited training programs and unofficial accreditations that therapists can pursue, but a therapist’s expertise will ultimately come from their previous experience with similar clients, their engagement with organizations that promote sex positivity or kink-allied lifestyles, and the importance they place on safety and cultural sensitivity.

How can individuals recognize a good sex-positive, kink-allied therapist?

An experienced therapist is able to help clients explore their sexual identity and expression and relieve any discomfort or stigma attached to discussing such matters and the client’s overall challenges. A therapist who is sex-positive and kink-allied is able to create an environment that honors a client’s experience and sexual preferences. To recognize a good therapist, clients can simply ask directly about topics and issues important to them and gauge their comfort level and connection with a clinician based on the responses.

Can clients benefit from having a therapist with a focus on sex positivity and alternative sexual lifestyles?

Some individuals may feel most comfortable knowing that the clinician they’re working with has a commitment to creating an atmosphere of sex positivity and has experience with relationship diversity and alternative relationship structures. Working with a sex-positive, kink-allied therapist may help clients respect their own challenges and improve identity-affirming treatment.
