Professional Supervision & Consultation

We’ll strengthen your ability to conceptualize cases, create treatment plans, and hold therapeutic structure in a way that still feels warm and human. For sex therapy supervisees, this often includes learning how to assess sexual functioning concerns, differentiate what is relational vs. intrapsychic vs. physiological, and confidently guide conversations that may feel tender or awkward at first. We’ll practice how to ask the right questions, how to slow down a moment, and how to stay grounded when the room gets emotionally or sexually charged.

Many therapists were trained to avoid talking about sex or treat it as a taboo topic—so part of this work is helping you feel steady and competent discussing sexuality in real, nuanced, and clinically meaningful ways. We’ll explore anatomy, desire styles, arousal patterns, relationship dynamics, cultural and identity factors, kink, trauma, shame layers, and the many ways sexuality shows up in the therapy room. The goal is not to know everything, but to feel confident, curious, culturally aware, and genuinely comfortable.

This is where we focus on you—your tone, pacing, intuition, emotional regulation, and the way you “sit” in the work. Your professional identity doesn’t form from memorizing techniques; it develops through reflection, practice, and noticing what feels authentic. I help you explore who you are in the room, how you connect, where your strengths shine, and what activates insecurity or hesitation. Together, we’ll shape your voice as a therapist in a way that feels aligned, confident, and grounded.

Therapy often places us in the gray areas: relational conflict, trauma activation, shame, disclosures, boundaries, safety concerns, power dynamics, and the ethically complex decisions therapists have to make. I provide a space where you can slow down and think through these moments thoughtfully. We’ll look at how to manage risk, uphold ethical standards, maintain client safety, and document clearly and appropriately—without losing the humanity of the work.

Supervision isn’t just about skill. It’s also about taking care of you. We’ll talk about burnout, emotional saturation, clinical boundaries, working with shame (yours and your clients’), and developing internal practices that help you stay regulated and present. I want you to build a career that is sustainable—not one that drains you. Our work together includes learning how to hold clients deeply while also holding yourself.

So much of sex therapy involves helping clients untangle the stories they’ve absorbed about their bodies, desire, identity, and worth. In supervision, we’ll explore how to recognize shame-based patterns in the room and how to respond in a way that is attuned, invitational, and non-pathologizing. You’ll learn how to hold the emotional complexity of sexual healing without rushing the process or over-functioning, and how to stay grounded when clients look to you for reassurance, validation, or “the right answer.”
