ONLINE & IN-PERSON THERAPY IN COLORADOSomatic Sex Therapy
Helping you feel confident & empowered with sex & intimacy.
Healing your relationship with sex starts with healing your relationship with yourself.
So many of us carry confusion, shame, or grief about sex—often because no one ever showed us how to relate to it with care.
You may find yourself avoiding sex altogether… or going through the motions while feeling numb or shut down. You might feel pressure to perform a certain way, even when your heart isn’t in it. Or maybe you’re longing for more pleasure, more freedom, or more connection—but feel uncertain about how to get there.
Somatic Sex Therapy can help!
If you’ve ever felt like you’re “not good enough” or “broken” when it comes to sex or intimacy - you’ve come to the right place.
I work with individuals and couples who want a more grounded, authentic, and nourishing relationship to sex and intimacy—whether they’re partnered, solo, queer, kinky, monogamous, or non-monogamous. We’ll move at your pace, working with the body, not against it. That might mean exploring trauma, unpacking internalized shame, or simply learning how to listen to what you actually want.
This isn’t about “fixing” you. It’s about helping you come home to yourself.
What Makes the Somatic Approach Different
In Somatic Sex Therapy, we understand that sexuality isn’t just something that happens in the mind—it’s a whole-body experience. Erotic desire is a life-force energy that we all have inherently—it isn’t something you can lack or lose. Issues arise when the natural flow of this energy is interrupted—by stress, trauma, shame, or disconnection—it can leave you feeling stuck, shut down, or out of sync with yourself or your partner.
Freeing up this flow isn’t something you can reason or “think” your way into. It only happens when you are present in your body and not wandering around in your mind.
Sex is an embodied, energetic process, and it must be met on that same level.
Traditional talk therapy can help you understand your sexual patterns, but somatic work brings the body directly into the process. We pay attention to sensations, breath, movement, and nervous system responses. We draw careful attention to the thousands of micro-moments that occur during erotic activity which can either amplify or block your body’s natural flow.
My approach integrates insights from Somatic Experiencing, Sensorimotor Psychotherapy, The Wheel of Consent, Sensate Focus, and Somatic-Concentric Sex Therapy (S-CST). These methods help you slow down, notice what’s happening in your body moment-to-moment, and rebuild safety and pleasure from the inside out.
When you reconnect with your body’s natural rhythms and cues, intimacy becomes less about performance and more about presence.
Pleasure becomes something you feel rather than something you chase.

I draw from somatic therapy, parts work, sensate focus and other trauma-informed approaches to support you in connecting to your own wisdom. You’ll never be pressured to go faster than your nervous system is ready for—and you won’t have to explain or justify your identity, your desires, or your boundaries.
