Intimacy Coach | Sex Educator | Facilitator
About Q
I choose to be an intimacy coach along my own path to discovering, understanding, and evolving intimacy. One of the things I kept running into was not finding a therapist in general, who even had similar life experiences, cultural knowledge, collective history, or shared historical trauma...let alone any intersectionality. I grew weary of having to educate my therapists before we could really start working together. It occurred to me at some point, that I couldn’t be the only person searching.I’m very experienced in dealing with issues specifically related to the Queer, BIPOC, Non-binary, Kink/Leather/BDSM, and SWer populations. I draw from my lived experience, education, and training to create a space for us to explore... you.I am passionate about human connection. I strive to provide you with a grounded, outside perspective. It would be my honor to assist in facilitating your growth around intimacy and connection.Queer is a word that describes sexual and gender identities other than straight and cisgender. Lesbian, gay, bisexual, and transgender people may all identify with the word queer. Queer is sometimes used to express that sexuality and gender can be complicated, change over time, and might not fit neatly into either/or identities, like male or female, gay or straight.
Mission & Vision
Mission StatementMy mission is to guide individuals toward deeper, more authentic connections by offering the support and education that society often fails to provide. While we are frequently told what relationships “should” look like, we are rarely taught how to communicate, build intimacy, or explore our desires with honesty and care. I aim to create a space where people can ask questions, be inquisitive, and discover their own path without judgment or pressure.Through compassionate, curiosity-driven counseling, I help clients understand that they are not required to follow the nuclear family model or anyone else’s script for intimacy. Their choices—whether to be partnered or single, physically intimate or not—are valid and worthy. Everyone has the right to exist, connect, and form relationships in ways that feel true to who they are.My mission is to empower each person to live in alignment with their own values, embracing difference and celebrating the diverse ways intimacy can be experienced and express.
Vision StatementMy vision is to cultivate a world where people deepen their intimacy with themselves and others by living authentically and modeling the behaviors they want to see in their relationships and communities. Through my work, I aim to empower individuals to embody their truth so fully that they naturally inspire those around them—not by force, but by example.By helping people access healthier, more connected ways of being, I hope to demonstrate that meaningful transformation is possible. When individuals thrive in their own intimacy and authenticity, they become a living reminder that there are many ways to be in the world—ways rooted in compassion, self-awareness, and genuine connection. My vision is a ripple effect of healing, where one person’s growth becomes a catalyst for collective change.
Topics
In our intimacy counseling sessions, we can explore what intimacy truly looks like for you—beyond expectations, assumptions, or past experiences. Many clients come in wanting to reconnect with themselves, to feel more in touch with their own desires, boundaries, and inner world. Together, we create space to understand what intimacy means on your terms.
Because many clients have already done therapy or are currently active in therapy, these sessions can focus on deepening self-awareness rather than processing trauma, which is supported by your therapist. With that foundation, we can shift into curiosity:What do you know—or think you know—about sex and sexuality based on your background, upbringing, culture, or past experiences?What parts of that feel true for you now, and what might no longer fit?We can also discuss what kinds of intimate or sexual experiences you’re having, want to be having, or feel unsure about. This might include exploring desires, relationship dynamics, identity, or areas where you feel stuck or disconnected.
A key part of our work can be unpacking whether sex and intimacy feel like the same thing to you or completely different. Understanding your unique framework opens up new possibilities for how you connect—with yourself and with others.
Ultimately, these sessions are a collaborative, grounded space to explore how you want to experience intimacy moving forward, free from pressure and guided by your own self-knowing.
outcomes
Clients who engage in intimacy counseling with me leave with a deeper sense of self-awareness and a clearer understanding of their own beliefs, desires, and definitions of intimacy. They develop greater confidence in navigating relationships—whether initiating physical connection, engaging in emotional intimacy, or building healthier dynamics with friends, partners, or lovers.Through our work together, clients gain lifelong tools and resources they can return to whenever they need reassurance, continued education, or a way to reconnect with themselves. These outcomes support sustainable personal growth and empower individuals to move through the world with clarity, intention, and a more grounded sense of their own relational needs.
