Looking for therapists who are BDSM (bondage, discipline, sadism and masochism) can be a challenge. Many have already attempted therapy in the past, only to find that these fantasies have been diagnosed as unhealthy. If you are someone who is part of the community, or who is interested in adding BDSM to your life, you don’t want to have to help your therapist accept this part of who you are. As sex positive therapists, we can help. Whether it be in your current relationship, or you’re just trying to figure this out for yourself, sex therapy can help.
If you’re someone who has never sought out therapy for this, or someone who didn’t bring it up to your therapist, you can find comfort in knowing that you can now have a place to openly discuss this part of your life. In therapy, you want to know that you’re not going to be judged for anything that you bring into your session.
