We ask a lot out of our intimate relationships, don’t we? The pressure for our partners to be our everything, the pressure to be sexy and have an effortless sex life, the pressure for desires to be intuited and in sync for the duration of the relationship. That’s a lot to carry. So when sexual desires, orientations, or expressions don’t match up, it can create tension, frustration, and confusion. It can leave you:
Panicking that your relationship might not be as stable as you think it is because your sex life feels anything but
Avoiding bringing it up because no one ever taught you how to speak your desire, and the conversations feel too big or too embarrassing to start
I believe that sex therapy with couples is about the conversations that are real, not rehearsed – the ones that make space for desire to stretch, for pleasure to grow, and for the relationship to breathe a little deeper. In sex therapy, we’ll work on how to find pleasure again, create a healthy sexual connection, and understand the importance of giving and receiving, so that you can:
Finally have the tough conversations that have been hanging in the air between you at bedtime
Get clear about each other’s desires, needs, and emotional worlds (and have fun practicing)
Together, we’ll dig into the unspoken norms and expectations shaping your connection, and figure out how to create new ways of relating that build strength and understanding – without blame or finger-pointing. This kind of work lays the groundwork for something deeper: a relationship where trust and pleasure can take root and grow.
