When we talk about sex, we’re talking about so much more. We’re talking about bodies, about stories we’ve been told about pleasure and accessing pleasure, we’re talking about generational patterns, we’re talking about communication differences, we’re talking about stored hurt and pain, we’re talking about the ability to prioritize yourself… Sex touches everything! So, that’s why it’s important to talk about it!

Having a focus of sex therapy has always been integral to my work as a therapist because it is what I’m most curious about. As with the examples above, discussing sex can bring up a lot for us. By creating a curious and judgement free zone through a sex positive lens, I am wanting to go there with you, to help shine a light on the areas that you might be feeling shame or fear about. This can look like gaining more knowledge around sex or discussing how you’re wanting to approach sex in a way that feels authentic to your wants and needs. It also can look like learning how to embrace your body wholly so that you can embrace pleasure wholly.
