Welcome
I’m so glad you’re here.
I’m Giulietta, a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist and AASECT Certified Sex Therapist.
I help sensitive, deep, and insightful people to experience more sexual pleasure and passion, embrace authenticity, and live a life that feels more meaningful. I created Aphrodite Counseling because I believe that sexual healing can be powerful, transformational, and joyful and that everyone should be able to have access to sex-positive, affirming therapy, and high-quality resources on their healing path.
Having been a therapist for more than a decade and in the mental health field since 2006, I have had the honor of supporting hundreds of people in their healing journeys. I have extensive experience providing sex therapy, archetypal therapy, couples therapy, mindfulness-based and holistic therapy, and trauma informed-therapy, integrating evidence-based and holistic approaches.

Sex Therapy
Sex therapy is a form of therapy that supports your individual self-exploration and sexual healing through a supportive, empowering space. Sex therapy can address concerns like erectile disorder, difficulties achieving orgasm, low desire, or sexual pain. It can also help you reconnect with your sensuality after trauma, release sexual and body shame, explore who you are as an authentic sexual being, and discover and embrace your desires, pleasure, and body.
Couples Therapy
Couples therapy can help you and your partner increase your emotional and erotic connection while addressing concerns like mismatched desires, sexual difficulties, and past traumas. Couples therapy is also a place where you and your partner can explore fantasies and desires, develop practices to increase passion and pleasure, and deepen trust and playfulness.
