Why This Group?
Many women struggle with low desire, sexual shame, or confusion about what turns them on—but often feel alone in those experiences. This group offers a supportive, nonjudgmental space to explore those questions in community. With guidance from Sara and Madison, therapy interns receiving supervision from experienced sex therapists, participants will use Come As You Are to gain a deeper understanding of their sexuality, learn to quiet self-doubt, and feel more empowered in their relationship with pleasure.
