Sexuality

Sexuality is a deeply personal part of human identity. It can include who you’re attracted to, how you experience desire, how you relate to intimacy, and the meaning you make of relationships and connection. For many people, sexuality is not fixed or easily defined, and it can shift across time, life stages, and experiences. Sexuality is often a complex interaction of biological, emotional, relational, cultural, and social factors.

People often seek therapy around sexuality because they want space to explore, understand, or make sense of their experiences. 

Questions around sexuality can surface during periods of transition, stress and identity exploration. Therapy offers a supportive, non-judgemental environment to explore these experiences with curiosity, clarity, and care.
