The A.R.T. of Intimacy
Phases of Care

The A.R.T. of Intimacy

A three-phase model for what treatment with me actually looks like — an unhurried arc from first contact through integration. Grounded in Afrocentric principles and the sacred work of reclaiming pleasure, connection, and wholeness.

  1. AAffirm01

    Phase 1 · Sessions 1–3

    Assessment & Alliance

    We begin with a full biopsychosocial and sexual history — your body, your relationships, your culture, your inheritance. We name what brought you here (low desire, painful sex, mismatched libidos, infidelity, disconnection, shame) and establish the trust and safety every honest conversation requires.

  2. RRenew02

    Phase 2 · Ongoing

    Insight & Skills

    We explore the symptoms and cycles keeping you stuck — the inherited scripts, attachment patterns, and cultural or religious messages shaping how you love and desire. You practice coping skills, communication tools, and values-clarifying work that begins to soften what has hardened.

  3. TTransform03

    Phase 3 · Integration

    Growth & Integration

    Posttraumatic growth. New ways of thinking, feeling, and relating — rehearsed until they are yours. Your erotic self integrated into your whole self, so the intimate life you build outlasts our work together.

Frequently asked questions
Before you reach out

FAQ — Questions, answered

Who do you work with?+

Adults, couples, and diverse relationship structures — affirming of all sexual orientations, gender identities, gender expressions, and ways of loving. Kink-aware, poly-aware, and welcoming to interfaith and interracial partnerships.

Do you offer virtual sessions?+

Yes. Sessions are virtual and available to residents of Georgia and states participating in the Counseling Compact.

What does it cost? Do you offer sliding scale?+

Sessions range from $140–$200 depending on service. A limited number of sliding-scale spots are available — ask during your consult and we'll find what works.

Do you accept insurance?+

Yes. Insurance and cash pay are both accepted. Even if your insurer isn't listed above, send your details when you reach out and we'll confirm coverage before your first session.

How long are sessions?+

Individual sessions are 53+ minutes. Couples sessions run 75–90 minutes. Initial intake (individual or couples) is 75–90 minutes so we have time to hear the full story.

What is the free 15-minute consultation?+

A no-pressure phone or video call to see if we're a fit — you share what's bringing you in, I answer questions about approach, logistics, and cost, and we decide together whether to move forward.

What is the A.R.T. model?+

Affirm, Renew, Transform — a three-phase treatment arc. We affirm the whole person and build a shared assessment, renew by exploring the cycles and inherited scripts keeping you stuck, and transform through new ways of thinking, feeling, and relating that outlast our work together.

What kinds of issues do you treat?+

Low or mismatched desire, painful sex, difficulty with arousal or orgasm, sex after trauma, sexual shame, infidelity and rebuilding trust, communication ruptures, disconnection, life transitions, exploring identity and orientation, and couples navigating non-monogamy.

Is this confidential? What about LGBTQ+, kink, or non-monogamy?+

Everything discussed is protected by therapist confidentiality (with the standard legal exceptions). You will not be pathologized for who you love, how you love, or what you do in your bedroom. This is an affirming practice, not a curious one.

What is your cancellation policy?+

Sessions cancelled or rescheduled with less than 24 hours' notice are charged the full session fee. Life happens — we'll always try to reschedule within the week when possible.

What should I expect in the first session?+

The first session is a full biopsychosocial and sexual history — your body, your relationships, your culture, your inheritance. We name what brought you in, establish goals, and begin the work of trust and safety. You get to ask questions too.

The Bedroom of Your Mind

CBT shows us how thoughts, feelings, and behaviors create patterns that shape our intimate experiences. Understanding these cycles is the first step toward transformation.

The bedroom of your mind is shaped by the thoughts you think, the emotions you experience, and the behaviors you practice.
