Our sexuality is integral to our identity, and is deeply personal, and should be a source of joy and an avenue of discovery. Sometimes though we may have to be freed from our self-perception and judgments around that (and that of other people). We can talk about your unique experience in a free and non-judgmental way, and help you open a path to the fullest appreciation of your unique personhood.
