Sex Positive Counseling

At Positive Regard Therapy (PRT) our approach to counseling is sex-positive and kink-knowledgable. We have training and experience to help individuals and those in relationships with their sexual desires without shaming them.

All too often, we meet with clients who've seen another professional and had a negative experience.  Even if you don't decide to work with us, please do shop around and ask questions until you find a supportive therapist you trust. 

WHAT WE DO

• Use a sex-positive framework and vast knowledge of healthy sexuality to support your relationship

• Understand the unique dynamics and issues that arise for sex-positive couples (based both in lived and professional experience)

• Use a integrative approach to help you grow in a positive direction

• Develop an individualized plan to change the way you do relationships

• Help you listen, build trust, negotiate, have compassion and communicate effectively with yourself and those you love

WHAT WE DON'T DO

• Sit and nod - instead, based on your preference, we will focus on and take action on things that you've identified in your life

• Add shame or judgment to your experience (there's already too much of that in the world)

• Deem your kink, fetish, desire or fantasy wrong, abnormal, or unhealthy (so long as you only enact fantasies with consenting adults or on your own)

• Assume your queer experience is the same as our own

We’ve supported clients who express many diverse interests, including:

• threesomes

• group play

• swingers

• exhibitionists

• leather community

• daddies

• age play

• doms and subs

• voyeurs

• role play

• bondage

• masochism

• tops and bottoms

• sensation play
