Sex Therapy
A sex-positive, queer affirming, shame resilient experience
Intimacy and sexuality can feel intimidating—especially when shame, anxiety, and disconnection get in the way. Whether you want to explore intimacy issues with your partner/spouse or explore your own sexual experiences as an individual, sex therapy can help.
As a licensed sex therapist in Austin, TX, my goal is to help you reconnect with your body, communicate openly, and cultivate intimacy that feels safe, authentic, and fulfilling.
The Belonging Counseling approach to Sex Therapy
Our approach to sex therapy in Austin, TX focuses on creating a nonjudgemental, sex-positive, and affirming space where individuals and couples feel safe to explore sex-related topics freely and securely. Through in-person or virtual services, our work will be trauma-informed and inclusive.
We use a combination of attachment-based, somatic, and EFT (Emotionally Focused Therapy) approaches for individuals or couples work. Our practice is a welcoming space for all identities, orientations, and relationship styles including LGBTQ+, kink, non-monogamous, and polyamorous clients.
