Trauma-informed sex therapy and relationship counselling for individuals and couples in Ottawa and across Ontario
Virtual Sex Therapy & Relationship Counselling in Ottawa
I offer compassionate, trauma-informed sex therapy and relationship counselling for individuals and couples in Ottawa and across Ontario. Together, we can explore concerns related to sexuality, intimacy, sexual shame, anxiety, trauma, painful sex, desire differences, and relationship disconnection in a space that is safe, collaborative, and judgement-free.
I also support couples in Ottawa navigating intimacy challenges, communication struggles, emotional disconnection, and the process of rebuilding closeness, trust, touch, and emotional and physical connection in their relationship.
How sex therapy can help
Many people seeking sex therapy in Ottawa feel overwhelmed, disconnected, anxious, or unsure how to talk about intimacy within their relationships. Therapy offers a supportive space to better understand the emotional, relational, and nervous system patterns that may be impacting sexuality, communication, desire, pleasure, and connection.
Whether you are struggling with painful sex, mismatched desire, anxiety during intimacy, pornography-related concerns, or emotional disconnection in your relationship, sex therapy can help you move toward greater understanding, communication, and closeness.
I work with individuals and couples seeking sex therapy in Ottawa and Ontario for concerns such as:
Sexual shame and anxiety
Religious shame, purity culture, and sexuality
Intimacy and emotional disconnection
Desire discrepancy in relationships
Difficulty orgasming and sexual pleasure concerns
Sexual pain and discomfort
Erectile difficulties
Early or delayed ejaculation
Panic, anxiety, and intimacy concerns
Trauma and its impact on sexuality and relationships
Sex and pornography-related concerns (including compulsive patterns)
Virtual Sex Therapy for Ottawa & Ontario Residents

Ottawa Sex Therapy FAQS
Is virtual sex therapy effective?
Yes- for many it can be just as effective as in-person sex therapy. It can often help clients feel more at ease to talk from the comfort of their own home. However, some prefer in-person sessions! There is no right or wrong or more or less effective, there is only whatever feels best for you!
By winter 2026 I hope to offer an in-person office in Ottawa, ON so there will be more options for you as a client to see if your personal preference is in-person or virtual sex therapy.
Is counselling private if I live in Ottawa, what if I run into someone I know?
Your privacy is taken very seriously. Your sessions are confidential and protected by professional ethical and legal standards. Nothing is shared without your consent, except in rare circumstances where there is a legal duty to report for safety reasons.
In a city like Ottawa, it is also very understandable to feel concerned about privacy or the possibility of running into someone you know—whether that’s outside a clinic or in a waiting area. For this reason, virtual counselling is always available and can offer an added sense of discretion and comfort.
As your clinician, I also maintain strict professional boundaries outside of sessions. I will never initiate contact with you in public, and if we happen to cross paths, I will always respect your privacy and discretion.
Do I need to be in a relationship to attend sex therapy in Ottawa?
No. Sex therapy is for individuals and couples. Many people seek support on their own to better understand their sexuality, reduce shame or anxiety, or work through past experiences that are impacting intimacy and relationships.
