About Me
I am a certified sex therapist with the goal to provide therapy through a holistic lens, seeing the person as a whole, and to provide a safe and non-judgemental space.
Originally from Finland, I have spent many years travelling and exploring different cultures, and currently live in Barcelona, Spain. This has helped me to understand the many different ways it is possible to exist in the world.
Open mindedness and curiosity are qualities I hold close to heart. They also led me ultimately to explore many different methods of healing such as; Tantric sexuality, psychedelics, talk therapy, breath work, yoga, meditation, and a handful of other spiritual and traditional ways of exploring the mind and the body.
Due to my background in Global Humanities and Social Psychology I also include perspectives from decolonial psychology. I think it is important to recognise how our upbringing, culture, beliefs, and daily habits affect our sexuality and relationship with ourselves and others.
My practice is a safe space for all genders, sexualities and relationship constellations.

My Journey
I found my way to explore sexuality after having countless talks with friends, realising the disconnect between our own experience with sex and relationships, and what we had started to learn about what it could be. Coming across sexologists, intimacy coaches and sex educators online awakened my interest in wanting to explore the depths of my own sexuality.
Having struggled with numbness, a need to perform to accommodate partners, and looking for pleasure and excitement outside of myself, I finally decided to start tuning inward. I tapped into my vulnerability and began being open with myself and those around me. I started to explore my boundaries and desires, to grieve how I hadn’t used my voice and how I had abandoned my needs. As sex is connected with almost all aspects of life, starting to explore my sexuality allowed me to notice the other areas in my life that I hadn’t realised needed healing.
Ultimately when it comes to sex and sexuality, knowledge is power. A lack of knowledge creates dysfunctions, shame and misunderstandings in relationships. By learning and understanding how our bodies work, how to feel, to let go of the old narratives, and how to own our pleasure, we regain our connection to intimacy and to embrace our authentic self.
