Frequently Asked Questions About Sex Coaching
Frequently Asked Questions
Curious about sex coaching? Here's what to know before we get started.
What happens in a sex coaching session?
Sessions are conversational, collaborative, and tailored to you. Together, we explore your concerns, desires, patterns, and goals. I offer thoughtful questions, fresh perspectives, and practical tools to help you move forward with greater clarity and confidence.
Who is sex coaching for?
Anyone looking to better understand their sexuality, deepen intimacy, explore pleasure, or navigate challenges in their relationships. I welcome individuals and couples of all genders, orientations, and relationship styles.
What kinds of things can we work on?
Desire and libido, pleasure and orgasm, sexual confidence, body image, communication, intimacy, relationship dynamics, kink, non-monogamy, and sexual self-discovery. You don't need to have a problem to benefit from coaching. Curiosity is reason enough.
What is the difference between sex coaching and sex therapy?
Sex coaching focuses on the present and future, helping you develop awareness, skills, and strategies for meaningful change. Unlike sex therapy, coaching does not diagnose or treat mental health conditions or provide psychotherapy. Both can complement one another.
What happens during our first session?
We'll clarify your goals and explore what's happening beneath the surface using Dr. Patti Britton’s MEBES framework, which considers your mind, emotions, body, behaviors, energy, and spirit. From there, we'll begin identifying possibilities and next steps.
What if I'm embarrassed or don't know what to say?
That's perfectly normal! You don't need the right words, a clear goal, or even a starting point. We'll figure it out together, at your pace, without pressure or judgment.
Are sessions confidential?
Yes. Your privacy is a priority. I maintain professional confidentiality, with any applicable legal or safety-related exceptions explained before we begin.
Do sessions involve physical touch or sexual activity?
No. All coaching sessions are talk-based. There is no physical touch or sexual activity.
Can we work together if I have a history of sexual trauma?
Possibly. Coaching is not trauma therapy, but it may complement work with a qualified therapist. We'll discuss your needs and whether coaching is appropriate for your goals.
How long are sessions, and are they online?
Individual sessions are 60 minutes, and couples sessions are 70 minutes. All sessions take place privately over Zoom.
Do you offer packages, and is coaching covered by insurance?
I offer packages of 3, 7, and 12 sessions, with scheduling tailored to your goals. Sex coaching is not covered by insurance.
What is your cancellation policy?
Please provide at least 24 hours' notice to cancel or reschedule your session. Sessions canceled with less than 24 hours' notice may count toward your prepaid package, except in extraordinary circumstances. I extend the same courtesy when rescheduling on my end. Late cancellations on single sessions may incur a fee of 50% of the session rate, except in extraordinary circumstances.
How do I know if sex coaching is right for me?
Let's talk! I offer a complimentary 15-minute discovery call to discuss what you're looking for, answer your questions, and see if we're a good fit.
