Hi, I’m Natasha Helfer(she/her)

I am an AASECT-certified sex therapist and Licensed Marriage & Family Therapist who’s spent the last three decades helping people untangle their sexuality from shame, silence, and stigma.

Much of my work focuses on helping individuals, couples, and families heal from sexual shame, primarily when it’s rooted in religious trauma, purity culture, or systems of control that taught you your desires were sinful, your boundaries didn’t matter, or that your body belonged to someone else.

  • Whether you’re navigating:

  • Low desire or sexual avoidance

  • Compulsive sexual behaviors or misdiagnosed “addiction"

  • Questions around ethical non-monogamy

  • Mixed-libido partnerships

  • LGBTQ+ identity within conservative systems

  • Sexual trauma

Or simply trying to figure out what you want in the bedroom... I’m here to help you return to yourself—with clarity, confidence, and compassion. I believe that sexual healing is possible—and that pleasure, integrity, and agency can coexist.
