Abelee Groff
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LICSW
I work with adults seeking to explore sexual concerns, intimacy challenges, and relationship dynamics in a safe, affirming space. I help clients address sexual desire, communication around intimacy, body confidence, and navigating sexual identity, preferences, or relationship structures.
I offer kink-affirming and poly-friendly therapy and integrate trauma-informed, somatic, and parts-based approaches to support emotional regulation, self-awareness, and deeper connection with oneself and partners. My approach emphasizes consent, curiosity, and empowerment, helping clients develop sexual well-being, intimacy skills, and healthier relationships.

Matters of intimacy can be physical in nature that, in some ways, connect with our emotional lives and can become more complicated as we grow into our relationships with others.

Dr. Stéphanie Gamache, PhD
Hypnotherapist, PhD
Sex therapy addresses concerns related to desire, arousal, intimacy, and sexual self-expression within the broader context of emotional and relational life. My work integrates psychoanalytic methods, clinical sexology, hypnosis, and somatic awareness to explore the deeper meanings beneath sexual struggles. Together, we work toward a more coherent, embodied, and authentic relationship with desire and intimacy.
