Affirming Sexuality Services

Support that understands healthy sexual expression is broad and does not pathologize people for being different.

Healthy expression takes many forms

Many people do not fit neatly into heterosexual, monogamous, or typical forms of sexual expression. Some seek help exploring what is right for them. Others want a therapist who understands their life without making their identity or relationship structure the problem.

Rhoda has extensive academic and clinical training in human sexuality and understands that many forms of sexuality can be expressed in a healthy, consensual manner.

Therapy can provide space to discuss an open relationship with a spouse or partner, explore fantasies, improve communication and consent, or bring a more authentic understanding of sexuality into daily life.
