Somatic Sex Counseling for Individuals, Couples, & Groups
What is Somatic Sex Counseling?
Somatic Sex Counseling is an integrative approach that adds body-based practices to address sexual concerns, deepen intimacy, and promote emotional well-being. This method focuses on the connection between the mind, body, and sexual experiences, helping you to unlock deeper levels of satisfaction and connection in your relationships and personal life.
How Can Somatic Sex Counseling Help You?
Whether you’re struggling with sexual difficulties, emotional stress, or relationship challenges, Somatic Sex Counseling offers a comprehensive pathway to healing and growth. This unique approach can help you:
Resolve Sexual Difficulties: From low desire and erectile issues to pain during sex and difficulties with orgasm, Somatic Sex Counseling provides targeted support to address and overcome these challenges.
Improve Emotional Regulation: By integrating mind-body practices, you can better manage stress, understand, regulate, and communicate your emotions, leading to greater overall well-being.
Deepen Intimacy in Relationships: Somatic practices encourage non-verbal communication, mindfulness, and mutual understanding, which are key to deepening connection and trust with your partner.
Explore and Embrace Your Erotic Self: Whether it’s understanding kinks, exploring BDSM, or navigating consensual non-monogamy, Somatic Sex Counseling provides a safe, non-judgmental space to explore and express your authentic sexual self.
What Distinguishes My Approach?
My approach stands out by combining the principles of Sex Counseling with Interpersonal Neurobiology. This framework looks at sexuality within the Triangle of Well-Being, how mind, brain(body), and relationships are like a three-sided coin. We explore not only the difficulties specifically within your sexuality or relationships but how they connect to your overall mental, emotional, and physical well-being.
Here’s what makes my approach different:
Mind-Body Connection: I focus on the integration of mind and body, helping you become more aware of physical sensations, emotions, and thoughts, and how they interact to shape your sexual experiences.
Interpersonal Neurobiology: By understanding how your brain, body, and relationships influence each other, we can create lasting change that benefits all aspects of your life.
Focused on the Present: We will set up goals to work together and from time to time revisit the past to understand how it is playing it self in present day. Nonetheless, we’ll be focusing on how your day to day looks like and what comes up during session. You can only change now. This practice is applicable to enjoying pleasure and increasing feelings of intimacy.
Customized Sessions: Each session is tailored to your specific needs and goals, ensuring that the strategies we use are aligned with your personal journey. While I have a few things I’m looking for and questions I typically ask all clients, there is no a one-size-fits-all here.
