Women's Sex & Relationship Therapy in Boulder, Colorado
For the woman who is ready to stop performing and to reclaim herself
You’re ready to stop shrinking and performing. It’s time to live a life that actually belongs to you.
You've spent years being capable, accommodating, and easy to be around. You've managed the household, worked the job, held the relationships together, shown up for everyone who needed you. And you've done it well — so well that nobody noticed it was costing you something. But now you notice. You feel it in the resentment that creeps in when you say yes for the hundredth time to something you don't want. You notice it in the way your body tightens when someone needs something from you. You notice it in bed, when you flinch at their touch. Sex has started to feel like one more obligation you're performing rather than something that belongs to you.
Maybe you're in the middle of a major transition — a divorce, a breakup, a career change, a body that's shifting in ways nobody prepared you for. Maybe perimenopause has cracked something open that you can't ignore anymore. Or maybe nothing dramatic has happened at all — you've just slowly outgrown the life you built and don't know yet what comes next. Scrolling reels, asking Claude or ChatGPT, or talking to your friends only gets you so far.
You’re ready to find your voice, know and hold your boundaries, put people pleasing in the rearview mirror, and live a life that feels like it actually belongs to you. If you’ve been living someone else’s dream for years, or have outgrown your old dreams, yet haven’t updated your dreams to match your true desires, reach out.
If being a “good girl” or “good woman” is making you queasy with resentment and yes, even rage, reach out. You’re over it and it’s time for changes.
If you’ve already been through the big initiation (the breakup, divorce, career change, etc) and it’s clear that now you’re ready for what’s next. You would like grounded support for what’s here now, what you’re building, while also making peace with your past.
Perhaps all of this is shaking up your sex life, in ways that you struggle to make sense of. You cannot unsee the ways in which you feel unloved and unmet, emotionally and sexually. Tapping into what brings you true pleasure and joy feels important, and complicated. Your erotic self, your relational self, that primal, wise part of you that can never be fully silenced, is calling out to be heard. You feel curious, a little afraid, and maybe a touch of excitement about opening that door. Nothing changes if nothing changes. You already know that. That’s why you’re here.

You Often Find Yourself Thinking…
You might call it burnout. You might call it a midlife meltdown or crisis.
What if it’s an awakening?
You might not have a name for it yet — just a feeling that something has to change, and that you're the only one who can change it.
That's enough to start.
My approach
This work is direct, embodied, and shame-free. I'm not going to tell you to be more grateful or practice more self-care and call it a day. We're going to look honestly at the patterns that got you here (hint—a lot of the patterns are rooted in our culture and other systemic factors), like the people pleasing, the shrinking, the performing. Together, we’ll figure out where they came from and explore what it would take to do something different.
Some sessions we'll go deep into the emotional territory. Others we'll focus on practical tools: how to hold a boundary, how to have the conversation you've been avoiding, how to reconnect with what you actually want. We move at a pace that feels real, not rushed.
Over Time, You’ll Feel Positive Shifts, Such as. . .
