Sexual Health Consultation
For the questions your doctor didn't have time to answer — and the ones you weren't sure how to ask.

Expert Guidance for Sexual Health Questions
Sometimes a single conversation with the right person changes everything.
Sexual health consultations are short-term, focused sessions — 30 to 40 minutes — designed for people who have specific questions about desire, arousal, sexual pain, hormonal changes, medication effects, or erotic wellness, and who want a knowledgeable, shame-free space to explore them.
This is not ongoing therapy. It is expert guidance from a certified sex therapist who understands the psychological, relational, and erotic dimensions of sexual health — the parts that don't show up in lab results and don't fit into a fifteen-minute medical appointment.
HSA and FSA cards are accepted across all services. California-based therapy clients may request a superbill — a detailed receipt you can submit to your insurance company for potential reimbursement through your out-of-network mental health benefits.
Sexual health consultations are available at $95 per session or $270 for a package of three.
For Medical Providers: A Trusted Referral Resource
If you work with patients navigating sexual health concerns that fall outside your scope of practice — desire changes, arousal, sexual pain, medication effects, hormonal transitions, erotic grief, or the psychological dimensions of gynecological or urological conditions — I offer a discreet, professional referral pathway.
I am a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist and Certified Sex Therapist, and AASECT member, based in Arcata, CA, with nearly a decade of clinical experience and ongoing coursework through the International Society for Sexual Medicine (ISSM), and continued AASECT CST supervision. I work collaboratively with medical providers and can communicate with your team when appropriate and with client consent.
To discuss a referral or learn more about how we might work together, schedule a consultation or email me to reach out directly.
Frequently Asked Questions
-
Desire changes after starting a new medication. Arousal concerns after a hormonal shift. Sexual pain that has a medical explanation but no emotional support around it. Questions about pleasure, fantasy, or erotic identity that felt too specific for a doctor's office. Anything in the territory of sexuality and the body that needs a knowledgeable, unhurried conversation.
-
No. You can reach out directly. Referrals from medical providers are welcome but not required.
-
Yes. HSA and FSA cards are accepted for all services. If you are a California-based therapy client and would like a superbill for potential out-of-network insurance reimbursement, just ask — I provide them as a matter of course.
-
Yes. Medication-related sexual effects are among the most underaddressed concerns in mental health. Therapy can help you understand what's changed, explore options including conversations with your prescriber, and develop a realistic relationship with your current erotic experience.
-
Yes. Hormonal transitions affect erotic experience in ways that medicine often underexplains and therapy rarely addresses directly. I work with this territory with specificity.
-
Yes. Psychedelic integration — particularly experiences that touched sexuality, spirituality, or erotic identity — is a specific area of this practice, informed by my advisory role with the NOWAK Society.
-
Yes. Hormone therapy affects the body in ways that extend well beyond the physical — desire, arousal, sensation, erotic identity, and the relationship to one's own body can all shift significantly during and after transition. These changes can go unaddressed in medical appointments. I have the training to hold them with specificity, including mindful and consensual use of diagnostic language in a shifting political landscape.
-
Often, yes — though what that means depends on what is actually happening. Desire shifts have many causes: relational, physiological, psychological, contextual. We would start by understanding the landscape.
-
Yes. Sexual health consultations are available by telehealth to clients outside California.
