Sex Therapy in Seattle, WA
An inclusive space for individuals, partners, and couples to explore intimacy, connection, and sexual health
Sex Therapy in Seattle
Compassionate, evidence-based support for intimacy, connection, and sexual well-being.
Sexuality is a deeply personal and often vulnerable part of being human. Whether you’re navigating challenges in your sex life, feeling disconnected from your body, or simply wanting a more fulfilling and authentic relationship with intimacy, sex therapy offers a supportive, nonjudgmental space to explore what’s going on.
At its core, sex therapy is a form of talk therapy focused on emotional, relational, and psychological aspects of sexual health. There is no physical contact or sexual activity in sessions. Instead, we work through thoughtful, guided conversation tailored to your comfort and goals.

Yes!!! This practice is LGBTQIA+ affirming and inclusive of diverse identities, bodies, cultural backgrounds, and relationship structures, including non-monogamy.

My goal is to offer a space where clients feel respected, understood, and supported in exploring intimacy in ways that feel authentic and self-defined. 🤝🌈🧭
