Boulder’s Expert Sex Therapy Services

Sex therapy covers all of the couples counseling work AND simultaneously addresses sexual challenges and satisfaction. Sex therapy offers a safe, professional, and trauma-informed space that allows couples and individuals to learn, communicate, un-shame, empower, transform, and heal all facets of their sexuality and sexual relationships. 

Gaps in desire, struggles with attraction,  sexless relationships, physical issues (pain, orgasm challenges, erectile issues, menopause, sex post-partum), sexual transitions, gender, LGTBQIA+ orientation, kink, infidelity, polyamory, dating, non-traditional;l relationships, emotional disconnection during sex, sexual trauma, non-ordinary states of consciousness during sex, and many more! 

Most of us have shame, discomfort, and resistance to talking about sex, let alone embarking upon a path in our relationships toward truly fulfilling and passionate sex lives. Our sexual identities are usually siphoned off and neglected, and we can spend a lifetime not knowing ourselves or our partners in this profoundly connecting way!  I will help you normalize communicating about sex, identify your desires, heal previous trauma, and offer tools to practice at home between sessions.  Most partners are surprised that beginning a consistent sexually themed dialogue within their relationship has incredibly beneficial impacts! 

Similar to individual and couples therapy, the first session is more of an intake and assessment so we can clarify your goals and establish a coinciding cadence and timeline. I may send you home with a sexual history questionnaire to fill out with your partner or refer you to books or other relevant and supportive resources. My primary goal is to establish a safe environment where your pacing and comfort are paramount.  Sometimes psychoeducation is predominant in our sessions or more experimental practices like each partner facing one another, asking for what they want and need.  To be witnessed by and witness each other's deepest vulnerabilities offers vast healing and transformation!

Several of my Sex Therapy clients are individuals looking to educate, heal, and evolve themselves sexually.  This can look like working through feelings of embarrassment or shame, examining low libido, challenging your limiting beliefs about what sex "should be," healing previous sexual trauma, investigating your sexual attitudes and history, redefining what pleasure means, working with physical challenges, and developing more comfort discussing sex in general. There is NO standard perception to uphold regarding sex! We are all unique, and there is embedded toxic and disempowering messaging about sex, leading to a multitude of self-shaming and comparison attitudes for people!
