sex positive
I am not a sex therapist but I am sex positive! What does that mean exactly?
ESSENTIALLY...
sex-positive therapists embrace the idea that consensual sexual activities are fundamentally healthy. This may include consensual non monogamy (CNM) like swinging, polyamory and open relationships. This may also include kinks, fetishes, BDSM, crossdressing and working within the sex industry as a performer.
Societal views towards these subjects tend to be negative and often those who participate in such activities feel stigmatised. It can be difficult to find a therapist in which you feel comfortable enough to be fully honest about who you are and what you like to do. Of course, there isn’t always a need to disclose such things, but if it overlaps with issues you may want to explore this can be an issue in itself. You need to feel comfortable to talk about everything openly so I can get a clear picture of what might be going on for you.
Fear not! I am well versed in this area and have seen clients from many walks of this lifestyle. I have a particular interest in working with anyone who identifies as a sex worker. I understand the terminology and am not shocked by subject matters some may find shall we say…strange? With me, there will be less educating on your part and more helping on mine.
I offer high-quality, informed therapy, an understanding of the industry with no assumptions made about how you may feel about your profession. As with all jobs, some may feel positive, negative or ambivalent about it.
