Sex Therapy for Women in British Columbia
Online Sexual Wellness Counselling for Women and LGBTQIA2S+ Across British Columbia, Canada
Sex-Positive, Trauma-Informed, Sex Therapy
Sex Therapist Julie Thomason, offers a safe space for Women, Queer Folks and their partners to explore and discuss your sexuality openly and without shame in the comfort of your own space. Together, we can explore your story, your values, your embodied consent, and your unique experiences with curiosity and care to help you reclaim, rewrite and empower your sensual, sexual and erotic self. My approach is inclusive and affirming, drawing from ongoing training in clinical sex therapy, pleasure-focused, health education and intersectional frameworks.
“Sexual health is health.
Sexual health is a part of your overall health and quality of life.”
— Dr. Lori Brotto
You don’t need to have the right words or a clear path forward.
Allow yourself to arrive as you are.
All of you, is welcome here.
Sexuality is one of the most beautiful, powerful and expansive forces that we get to experience, as beings, in this human experience.
Our sexuality is woven into how we live, how we love and how we create. Our sexuality is deeply connected to how we relate to ourselves, our bodies, and to our loved ones.
It can be one of the most beautiful parts of our human experience and the most brutal, hurtful and devastating when it is shamed through religion, culture or media, or injured through various forms of abuse.
Pleasure can be a healing force in your body.
Pleasure can soften stress, reduce pain and can connect us to the present moment. Pleasure can also be a form of healing and medicine for our minds, bodies and spirits.
Whether you're newly dating or a in a long-term relationship, healing from shame or trauma, exploring gender and identity or simply wanting a deeper connection to your erotic mind and erotic self — this is a space where all topics related to your sexuality are welcome.
