Letâs talk about: Sex
Sexuality, intimacy, pleasure, and connection are all deeply human experiences.
As a Denver Sex therapist
I provide sex therapy to individuals and relationships
Sex can be complicated. Talking about it shouldnât have to be.
Maybe you and your partner keep having the same conversation about sex. One of you wants more while the other feels pressure, shuts down, or pulls away. Maybe sex has become painful, disconnected, anxiety-provoking, or something you avoid altogether. You might be navigating changes in desire, difficulty with arousal or orgasm, sexual shame, body image, past experiences, questions about identity, or uncertainty about what you actually want. You may also be exploring your sexuality on your ownâgetting curious about desire, pleasure, fantasy, your body, or what feels authentic to you outside of a partnership. Or maybe nothing is necessarily âwrongââyou simply want to feel more connected, confident, curious, or free in your sexual life.
As a queer, LGBTQIA+ affirming sex therapist in Denver, I work with individuals, partners, and relationships to talk openly about the parts of sex and intimacy that can be *not surprisingly* difficult to talk about. Together, we can slow things down, get curious about the patterns that have developed, and better understand what might be getting in the way of connection, pleasure, and authenticity.
Sex therapy is a specialized form of talk therapy that helps individuals and couples explore sexual concerns, relationship dynamics, intimacy, desire, communication, sexual functioning, identity, and pleasure. Sex therapy isnât about what your sex life should look likeâitâs about understanding yourself more deeply, finding language for your desires, and discovering what connection, intimacy, and pleasure mean for you.
