Sex Therapy

Trauma Therapy

For individuals & couples in San Antonio, TX and Online Therapy Throughout Texas or Florida

Strengthen Your Relationship

You can have a loving partnership and a satisfying sex life! Sex Therapy is similar to traditional talk therapy, but it can be hard to talk about even when it is a such a HUGE part of who we are as humans. Psst!! It gets easier to talk about and can even be fun! Let me show you how!

A Safe Space to Discuss

    Trauma Therapy

    Trauma symptoms vary from person to person and can impact our mental health, relationships and overall quality of life. Thankfully, it is possible to work through these experiences so that your quality of life is revived.

    Sex Therapy

    Sexual problems can be caused by many things:

    Growing up hearing negative messages about sex, for example that it is dirty or immoral, anxiety, hormonal changes e.g infertility, pregnancy or menopause, relationship issues, past sexual trauma and more.

    Couples Therapy

    Here you are provided a safe space to discuss difficult issues and find solutions. Close relationships bring many rewards but they are also challenging. Learning how to resolve conflicts and get through difficult times together is a key part of couples counseling.

Learn to manage Stress, tolerate Anxiety, and strengthen Self-Esteem

  • Unlearn generational patters and learn or identify healthy ones that build the life you want

  • Identify what puts you in a defense mode

  • Retire the mask you wore to protect yourself

By attending therapy, we’ll get a clear picture of where the origins of your symptoms are coming from so that we can create strategies for you to take back control. You do not have to feel tense, worried, living with high stress and the inability to feel like you can relax because “you never know what’s coming”. It can be seen in your relationships with others and in the relationship you have with yourself. We can build up your confidence to feel certainty in situations so that you’re not triggered into a self-doubt cycle that is really based past situations. You can finally be able to say to yourself “I understand where this comes from, but it can be better now so lets do it differently”. You deserve to enjoy your life; You deserve relief. 

You may have been to therapy, but You have never been to therapy like this before!

Hi, I’m Aara,

and I can help!

Healing Intimacies aims to uphold the value of:

  • Releasing bottled up thoughts, worries, and distress that impact our wellness.

  • A commitment to embracing a culturally affirming approach to therapy. I firmly believe that everyones’s experiences, backgrounds, and identities are unique and valuable.

  • For lovers to explore how they connect, enhance intimacy, and gain a deeper connection. You’ll learn tools to help communicate better, explore your sexuality in ways you did not think possible, learn about sex, your body, and gain confidence in understanding or verbalizing your needs as a sexual being.

  • Acknowledging the profound importance of trauma informed care in fostering healing and growth. Trauma can deeply impact one’s sexual wellbeing and autonomy. I commit to honor your boundaries, respect your choices, and empower you to reclaim ownership over your body and sexuality.
