About me

Ester (she/her)

COSRT registration number: 4368

In my therapeutic approach, I focus on helping clients reconnect with their sexual selves and their bodies. When addressing sexual difficulties, I often guide my clients to explore the question, “What does my body need that it’s not getting?”. My style is rooted in sex and body positivity, and I use an integrative biopsychosocial approach to psychosexual therapy, considering the psychological, biological, social, and relational influences on our sexual function.

I’m a COSRT registered, kink-affirmative psychosexual and relationship therapist, and I work with a variety of relationship styles. I believe that sex and intimacy, when nurtured and attended to, can provide us with a unique space for self-expression, play, empowerment, creativity, and connection.

Most importantly, I believe that clients’ sense of safety is of the greatest importance to our therapeutic work. This is why I invite new clients to book a free 20-minute video consultation where we get the chance to meet, introduce each other, and answer any questions. Sometimes it takes time to find the right therapist that you will feel comfortable to talk to. I wish for my clients to get a sense for the space and for me as a therapist before committing to any sessions. You will have the opportunity to step away and reflect on how you felt before deciding whether you would like to engage in therapy with me.
