Sometimes in the past I haven't even talked about these things with my therapist because when I have they have not been well received, adding to my shame. Anissa was so open-minded and warm I decided to talk about it and I'm so happy I did." ---BB

"I have a lot of shame around some of the things I like sexually and in the past I haven't even been comfortable talking about them in therapy. I've had bad experiences before. But Anissa was so reassuring and open-minded I took a chance and opened up, and I'm so happy that I did." ---BB

I had a guy come to me and said, "My wife treated me like a King but I wasn't feeling in love with her so I cheated on her" because he thought love was a feeling. I take you through the biochemistry of sexuality and help you understand the intersection of sex and attachment, the impact that the loss of the ability to attach can have on sexual experience and fidelity in relationships and help you take that information to help you develop healthy sexual attachment in the present and future.

Our sexuality often lies at the center of our psyche, and for some people even their spirituality. Our sexuality influences our self-perception and perception of the world. Societal expectations and traumatic experiences can hinder our ability to cultivate healthy connections with ourselves and our sources of meaning. Sexual healing fosters more authenticity and deeper connections with those around us, as well as helping us be more embodied and creative.
