Description
Asynchronous consultation is a collaborative process where people can meet with me to discuss their lives and problems they are facing to receive education, insights, and support. It is non-hierarchical, confidential, anti-capitalist and focused on learning rather than formal clinical evaluation. If you are seeking to understand yourself, your behaviors, your mind and the societal influences that you are facing, then you are in the right place.
Regarding my clinical experience, I have worked with following presenting symptoms:
- Racial Trauma & Post-Colonial Trauma
- Sexual Abuse Recovery, Trauma Re-enactment & Re-traumatization
- Religious & Spiritual Trauma Recovery
- Childhood Trauma and Inner Child Healing
- Hypervigilance and Dissociation during Intimacy
- Shame, Guilt & Disgust Sexual Scripts (Shame around masturbation or self-touch, shame-based sexual avoidance, etc.)
- Emotional Burnout and Erotic Fatigue
- Hypersexuality or sexual numbing as trauma responses
- Consent and Boundary Violations
- Compulsive Sexual Behaviors (excessive porn use, high-risk sexual behaviors like unprotected sex and sex in unsafe environments, etc.)
- Mismatched libido between partners
- Intimacy Avoidance and Emotional Detachment
- Loss of genital sensation or numbness post-trauma
- Body Image Distortion Related to Commodification
- Relationship Ruptures Due to Stigma or Disclosure
- Navigating sex while neuro-spicy
