Episode 195: Exploring Intimacy and Communication with a Therapist and Sexoloigst

Today on the podcast, Sierra Coleman, Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist and certified Sexologist joins us to discuss intimacy, sex and communication within our romantic relationships. This is such a juicy conversation. We discuss attachment styles and communication techniques to maintain empathy, vulnerability and express our needs. Sierra also highlights how stress can impact our ability to be intimate and communicate what we need and want. Sierra also discusses the fluidity of sexual orientations and a peek into some of the dynamics of ethically non monogamous, polyamourous and swinger relationships.

Sierra Coleman is a Licensed Graduate Marriage and Family Therapist and certifed Sexoloigst. Sierra practices at The Haven Center for Therapy in Maryland, an LGBTQIA+ allied, sex positive, kink-friendly practice, additionally helping couples navigate open relationships (ENM), polyamory, and non-traditional relationships. Sierra believes that each client has their own unique set of challenges and responds in their own way to different interventions, therefore her orientation is deeply person centered with an emphasis on experiential therapy. She believes that problems are interwoven parts of the whole person (mind, body, environment, and the interpersonal) and see counseling as a collaborative process to empower her clients. She enjoys working with couples and individuals. As a Couples and Family Therapist, her job is to help you decode your relationship, with yourself and one another.
