Are you feeling disconnected from your sexuality—or weighed down by shame around it?

Maybe a rupture has happened: an affair, a disclosure, a painful sexual experience, or a moment where your body or desire didn’t respond the way you expected. Or perhaps nothing “big” occurred at all—just years of quiet discomfort, silence, or messages that taught you your needs were wrong or too much.

You may be struggling to feel present in your body, avoiding intimacy, or pushing through your days on autopilot. Or maybe it’s heavier than that—difficulty getting out of bed, feeling numb, or carrying a persistent sense that something is fundamentally wrong with you. Perhaps you’re feeling broken, ashamed, confused, or disconnected from the version of yourself you wish you could be.

Whatever you’re experiencing, you’re beginning to notice the impact in every facet of your life:

  • Pulling away from physical or emotional intimacy, even when you want closeness

  • Feeling distracted, self-critical, or on edge at work or in social situations

  • Carrying tension, anxiety, or shame in your body that never fully lets up

  • Feeling that you’re the only one who thinks or feels this way

You don’t have to keep holding this alone—and it doesn’t have to stay this way.

I can help

It may feel impossible now, but you can feel more at home in your body. You can experience desire with less fear, pressure, or self-judgment. You can develop a relationship with your sexuality that feels authentic, empowered, and chosen. And I can help you get there.

Sex-positive, shame-informed therapy for individuals helps you:

  • Explore your sexual values, desires, boundaries, and curiosities in a way that feels safe, affirming, and free from judgment

  • Understand how shame, messaging, trauma, or past experiences have shaped your relationship to sex, pleasure, and your body

  • Learn practical tools to build self-trust, embodied awareness, and agency—so you can move forward with greater confidence, freedom, and self-compassion in both intimacy and everyday life.

I’ll support you through this process, tailoring each step to your unique needs and pace. My approach to therapy is sex-positive and trauma-informed: grounded in the belief that your desires are not the problem, and that healing happens when curiosity, consent, and self-acceptance replace shame.

You are not alone in this—and you don’t have to stay stuck here.

I can help you get there, step by step.

  • Sessions are conversational, collaborative, and tailored to you. We’ll talk about what’s bringing you in, what feels most pressing, and what you want to change.

    At times we may slow things down, notice patterns, or practice new ways of responding—but always at a pace that feels manageable and respectful

  • There’s no one-size-fits-all timeline. Some people come for short-term support around a specific concern, while others choose longer-term therapy for deeper or ongoing work.

    We’ll check in regularly about your goals and adjust as your needs change.

  • A big part of therapy “working” is feeling safe, understood, and able to be honest. We’ll stay attentive to your experience and what feels most helpful to you along the way.

    Therapy isn’t about fixing you—it’s about supporting meaningful change and healing over time, in ways that fit your life.

  • Getting started is simple. You can either send me an email or reach out through the contact form to schedule a consultation or first session.

    We’ll talk through what you’re looking for, answer any questions, and decide together on next steps.
