About Sarah Salazar
As an Integrative Kink Therapist, Coach & Educator, specialising in working with Individuals and Couples on Kink, BDSM & Alternative Lifestyle Relationships, my experience also translates into offering therapy through the lens of Gender, Sexuality and Relationship Diversity (GSRD), meaning my therapy room is a safe space for sex-positive, kink-informed, poly-aware, and LGBTQIA+ friendly therapy for individuals and couples.
While your main reasons for seeking counselling may not directly be related to your sexuality or relationships, I know how important it is to feel comfortable to share these aspects of your life should they need to come up in therapy.
I have over 13 years of personal experience in Kink, BDSM & Alternative Lifestyle Relationships, and have been a coach and educator in this space for over 6 years. I am a big believer that working with our sexuality is the key to healing in many other aspects of our life.
When we dive into sex, especially kink, it unlocks the door to our shadow self, which in turn allows us to connect with other parts of ourselves that may need some care and attention. This could include but is not limited to, limiting beliefs, inner child work, confidence and self esteem, trauma, shame, attachment and much more.
Whether you’re looking to explore your desires and understand more about your kinks, or you’re facing some challenges related to your sexuality, desires, intimacy & relationships, our work together will use compassionate and conscious inquiry into your thoughts and feelings and can draw on a variety of theories and tools from different aspects of psychology, spirituality, and mindfulness, to support you in your journey to living in alignment with your highest, most authentic self.
Sessions can be held online on Zoom, or F2F in Bournemouth.
