Meet Romi, Licensed Psychotherapist & Certified Sex Therapist
I came to the field of psychotherapy with a deep curiosity about the stories we carry and how they shape the way we move through the world. That curiosity drew me toward the stories people rarely say out loud: about bodies that hurt and sex that feels complicated.
Painful sex, whether it’s related to vaginismus, vulvodynia, endometriosis, childbirth, or menopause, can leave you feeling disconnected from your body, your partner, and yourself. Many people arrive feeling broken, hopeless, or alone.
Together, we can approach these experiences with warmth and openness, cultivating connection rooted in resilience and agency rather than self-blame.
Whether this is your first step or you’ve been navigating painful sex for years, I’m here to meet you where you are.
