SEX & RELATIONSHIP
THERAPY
in Brooklyn, NY
& Portland, OR
You’re probably here because…
You get why you shut down during sex, but your body still does it anyway
Communicating what you want feels selfish if it might impact your partner
Your sex life doesn't reflect who you are
You want deeper intimacy but something in you pulls back the moment you're really seen
You're rebuilding trust after a betrayal and need more than "just communicate better"
Sex is uncomfortable and you want more access to pleasure
You want a therapist who is anti-racist, non-pathologizing, actively engaged and won’t judge you for your choices
You've done therapy before. You're ready for something different.

Hi, I’m Sarah.
You've done the work. You can name the pattern, explain where it comes from. And your body still does the thing. I help people move past knowing into feeling—the kind of change your nervous system can use, not just your brain.
I'll notice when you start tracking your partner's reaction instead of staying connected to your own experience, and we'll slow it down. I'll ask what's happening in your body when you say "I'm fine." I'm direct, I'm playful, and I'll hold you accountable to your values even when it's annoying.
Trained in Internal Family Systems (IFS Level 2), sex therapy, somatic and nervous system-based approaches, and differentiation-based couples therapy.
