So What Brings You Here?

Let’s be real: intimacy is complicated. Whether things feel off, painful, confusing, or completely shut down, there’s a reason you’re here, and it matters. Maybe you're…

Struggling with mismatched desire or feeling like your libido has ghosted you
Feeling more like roommates than partners lately
Avoiding sex because it’s painful, stressful, or just doesn’t feel good anymore
Trying to navigate postpartum shifts, body image grief, or identity changes
Recovering from infidelity, betrayal, or a total breakdown in connection
Arguing about sex, or worse, not talking about it at all...and needing help finding the words
Curious about or questioning your sexual interests, relationship style, or identity, but don't want to be judged
Dealing with performance pressure, shutdowns, or anxiety that hits the brakes every time things get intimate
Still working through religious guilt, purity culture, or sexual shame
(side note: all faiths and beliefs are welcome here - no judgment, just support)
Carrying trauma in your body that shows up during sex, touch, or even closeness
Feeling stuck in silence because you don’t even know how to talk about what you want.

Nothing’s too taboo here. If it’s affecting your sex life or your self-worth, it’s worth unpacking.

What It's Like To Work With Kristin

Therapy with me is like a mix of deep conversation, good humor, straight talk, and a comfy virtual couch. Here’s what you can expect:

Sex-Positive & Trauma-Informed
I blend evidence-based tools with real-world language and no-nonsense support. Whether it’s shame, trauma, or just a dry spell, we get into it.

All the Love & None of the Judgement

Whether you're exploring your sexual interests, relationship style, identity, values, beliefs, or simply trying to better understand yourself, you deserve a space where you don't have to worry about being judged. I work with people from all backgrounds, identities, relationship structures, and belief systems. Come exactly as you are.

People sometimes ask how I can support experiences I don't personally live. I'm transparent about the fact that I'm a married, cisgender, heterosexual woman in a monogamous relationship. The answer is simple: being an effective sex therapist isn't about having experienced every version of intimacy or every type of relationship. It's about having the training, humility, curiosity, and clinical skill to understand and support yours.

As an AASECT Certified Sex Therapist, I've completed extensive, evidence-based training focused on sexuality, relationships, diversity, and culturally affirming care. Whether you're exploring your identity, navigating non-monogamy, working through shame, discovering what brings you pleasure, or simply wanting a healthier relationship with sex and intimacy, you'll be met with respect, compassion, and evidence-based care.

Real Tools for Real Life
We’ll use simple, powerful tools like communication tricks, desire clarity, and nervous system hacks to help things feel better in real life, not just in session. We build your toolkit together; custom, empowering, and absolutely doable.

I See You, First Responders
As a Certified First Responder Counselor with deep personal connections in the field, I understand how high-stress jobs can impact intimacy, identity, and connection at home. The emotional weight you carry is real, and you don’t have to carry it alone.

FAQ's

What is sex therapy, and how does it work?
Sex therapy is a form of talk therapy focused on addressing challenges related to sexual health, intimacy, and relationships. It’s about exploring concerns in a safe, judgment-free space, with the goal of improving connection and confidence, not just in the bedroom but in life.
Do I have to talk about everything in detail?
Not at all! You only share what you’re comfortable with. Sessions are guided by your pace, and the focus is always on creating a safe space to explore what’s important to you.
Is sex therapy just for couples?
Not at all! Sex therapy is for everyone. Individuals, couples, and people in all types of relationship structures, including non-monogamous relationships. Whether you're navigating personal challenges, strengthening a partnership, exploring your sexuality, or improving relationship dynamics, therapy can help you better understand yourself, deepen connection, and create the kind of intimate life that feels right for you.
Do sessions involve physical contact or demonstrations?
Never. Sex therapy is purely talk-based. It’s about conversation, education, and creating strategies to address your concerns, desires, and wants.
What kind of issues can a sex therapist help with?
Sex therapy can help with a wide range of concerns, including performance anxiety, differences in desire, pain during intimacy, difficulty with arousal or orgasm, communication challenges, relationship conflict, navigating pregnancy, postpartum, perimenopause, menopause, medical diagnoses that affect intimacy, healing from trauma or sexual shame, exploring sexual interests or identity, and even bringing more connection and excitement back into a long-term relationship. Whether you're facing a specific concern or simply want a healthier, more fulfilling intimate life, no topic is too big, too small, or too awkward to talk about.
Will therapy “fix” me or my relationship?
No one is broken, so there's nothing to "fix." Therapy is about understanding yourself and your relationship more deeply, learning new skills, and creating meaningful, lasting change. Sometimes that means healing old wounds. Sometimes it means improving communication, rebuilding intimacy, or discovering new ways to connect. My role isn't to tell you who to be, it's to help you become the healthiest, most authentic version of yourself and build the kind of relationship you want.
