As a sex therapist in Fort Collins who specializes in female sexual therapy, I get a lot of questions about what happens during a typical session. There are a lot of misconceptions about what sex therapy is or is not. One of the main focuses is to practice seeing ourselves as a sexual being, and not a sexual object that exists to fulfill someone else’s desires. Here’s what it looks like to reclaim your sexual self at Reflective Healing.
Understanding Your Enneagram
One of the enneagram numbers is your dominant number, a number that will help you to look at yourself more closely.

The growth occurs in seeing the shadowed aspects of yourself, the parts you may never have been aware of.

The purpose of this is not to rest as a means to be more productive at work, or parenting, or your routines.

The Role of the Shamanic in Therapy
While the idea of shamanism might conjure up all sorts of mental images, it really couldn’t be more practical and pragmatic— clients who come to me for shamanic healing are looking for internal clarity around their modern-day problems. That is the power of shamanism: just as in ancient times, internal wisdom exists.
