I always approach my clients openly, without judgment, and with genuine interest. 

No matter your age, gender, sexual orientation, educational background, profession, or beliefs - it brings me joy to support you in enhancing your sexual satisfaction and strengthening your relationship with your body and sexuality. 

My services are available to everyone! 🏳️‍🌈🏳️‍⚧️

In the first session, we discuss the matter that led you to seek my guidance. Together, we establish potential counseling goals, forming the basis for subsequent sessions.

Based on our initial conversation, I outline a counseling plan encompassing the objectives and potential areas of focus. This plan is reviewed during the second session, ensuring that all subsequent sessions are tailored to your individual goals.

Throughout subsequent sessions, we collaboratively address the topics we've discussed or those that arise. I support you using counseling techniques derived from psychology and sexology.

What do we use for sex? That's right, our bodies! That's why I also employ guided body and sensory exercises following the Sexocorporel model.

And because this is often a common query: Yes, the sessions are conducted fully clothed and without physical contact.

Depending on your needs, the counseling can be a one-time occurrence or the beginning of a counseling cycle/therapy. 

The number of sessions required depends on your needs, counseling objectives, and the topics you'd like to address. 

The session frequency is adjusted according to your needs.

During the counseling you can, for instance:

• Strengthen your own resources
• Cultivate fulfilling relationships with yourself and others
• Enhance your self-esteem
• Learn to communicate your desires, needs, and boundaries
• Connect with your body and learn to heed its signals
• Speak openly about sexual topics without shame
• Gain insight into your sexual desires, fears, and obstacles
• Overcome notions about who or how you should be and what is expected of you
• Identify and break restrictive patterns
• Release internalized stereotypes
• Heal old wounds.

Many of my clients come to my practice secretly or with strong feelings of shame. Most do not want anyone to know that they are seeking my support.

That is why I ensure the utmost discretion and offer complete confidentiality.

My practice is located away from the busy areas of Basel—you are unlikely to encounter anyone you know.

There are other medical practices in the building, and my premises are part of a group practice, so no one will be able to see where you are going, either outside the building, in the stairwell, or in the waiting room.

Sessions can be paid for in cash if you do not want the fee to appear on your bank statement.

Additional confidentiality arrangements can be made by agreement.

ChatGPT and similar programs draw their data from numerous published sources. For some questions about sex, you will receive empathetic and helpful answers. However, there is much that AI cannot offer.

Sexual counseling with me is worthwhile for you for the following reasons:

💪 More than just advice:

I work with methods that are not written down—and with exercises that AI simply does not know. I help you regulate strong feelings such as shame and fear in real time. You will learn methods that you can still use for yourself in 10 or 20 years.

💪 Individual solutions instead of copy-paste:

Sexuality is highly individual. There is no one-size-fits-all approach. The best solutions lie within you, and I help you to identify them. This cannot be obtained from a database.

💪 Confidentiality & security:

With me, you can rest assured that your most intimate secrets will not end up on the internet due to a software update. Trust and security are the basis of my work.

I speak German, English, and Swiss German, and I offer sex counseling in all three languages (and combinations thereof).

The Sexocorporel model is an approach in sexual therapy developed by French therapists Jean-Yves Desjardins and Daniele Kappler. It focuses on the connection between the body and sexuality, as well as the interactions between emotions, thoughts, and the body during sexual experiences.

The concept emphasizes the importance of body awareness, sensory perceptions, and how individuals experience their bodies within sexual encounters. It aims to promote an integrative view of sexuality that considers not only the physical aspects but also the psychological and emotional components.

The Sexocorporel model utilizes body-oriented exercises and reflections to assist clients in establishing a more conscious connection with their bodies and sensations. Its goal is to deepen understanding of one's own sexuality, enhance communication, and promote the experience of joy and fulfillment within sexuality.

If you are unable to attend a scheduled appointment, simply get in touch with me at least 24 hours prior, and we can easily reschedule it for the next available slot.

Should you cancel later, we'll still reschedule; however, a handling fee of 80 CHF will be charged (except for cancellations due to exceptional circumstances such as accidents or a family bereavement).

Switzerland:

My counseling is recognized by the ASCA quality label and is therefore (partially) covered by some supplementary insurance policies.

Before your first session, check with your supplementary insurance provider to see if they cover treatment methods 492 (sex therapy).

Other countries such as Germany, Austria, France etc.

At present, my counseling sessions cannot be billed via health insurance.

My practice is located at the Psychotherapeutische Gemeinschaftspraxis at Amerbachstrasse 9 in 4057 Basel.
