Is Sex Therapy
For You?

You may be coming to sex therapy now because you are needing a bit more expertise around how to talk about and process the sexual relationship with yourself or partner. 

You may be tired of not feeling good in your body or in your relationship and can remember a time when it felt better.  

You are ready to find out why you feel so disconnected from yourself and from the person or people you care about most. 

You’ve been having the same conversations over and over again, arriving at the same destination, and feeling as though you can’t get out of the spiral. 

You want to feel safe. You want to feel heard. You want to be seen. You are ready to make the commitment to know yourself in a deeper way. 

We will start by figuring out when you noticed there was a problem. Did something happen? How are you making sense of the problem? What have you tried to fix the problem?

At times, getting good information and experimenting is all you need to start feeling good. Sometimes we need to keep digging.

Meet Heather

I am Heather Brooks Rensmith, an AASECT (American Academy of Sexuality Educators, Counselors, and Therapists) Sex Therapist and Licensed Clinical Social Worker in Portland, Oregon and Washington. I love working with women, men, and those beyond and in-between the binary to create the relationship of your dreams and to have the sex you want to have. 

Having the relationship of your dreams and the sex you want to have may sound like a lofty goal, especially from where you may be sitting as you read this and consider what is going on in your relationship, but I’ve been there. Relationships and sex can be tricky, and it is possible to untangle the dynamics and get a little clarity. You came here because you do not want to half-ass the most important relationship of your life, and I want to cheer you on while you do it!

I can help you reconnect with yourself, and get to the bottom of what is getting in the way of being close to the person or people who matter most, and to clarify and reach your relationship goals. I can help you bring more than just leftovers to your relationship.

Call to schedule your free 20 minute consultation to talk about how I can help you.
